A Poem by joshua deathdealer

"
the spirit of a siren
       obtained by tragedy
speaks from within you
       forming temptation on your lips
helpless you smile
         content in your burial

          the stain left behind
is unmovable
         no matter how much I scrub
it lingers
        marking your beautiful soul
smearing all over your pallor

         growing like malignant lesions 
slowly consuming your vitality

          I cry silently
while the angels scream

So this is what I call, the perfect danse macabre, written by your rich vivid imagination. I like you used the siren in this one, which is mostly a oase of temporary bliss, by passing by, hearing the voices sing... but here, it seems, to dig in for eternity, the process of dying, seems to be slow and painful... you have so much magic in your quill my friend, I love reading your work. Thanks for sharing.

You have a talent for grabbing the emotion and heart, and ripping it to a new thought.




Always dig your work.

I really like this peice, people try so hard to regain innocence and save the ones they love but sometimes they are too far gone to ever be saved. A beatiful tragedy, nicely written.

Nice, I especially like the first three lines. Gives a feeling of helplessly drifting towards a black hole, but kind of liking it.
