Tonight the Graveyard is alive -
With sounds of passion long forgotten
As the church bell's midnight hymn arrives,
The crisp clean air turns foul and rotten
Eye to eye they meet again -
The ancient lovers' dark embrace
They tenderly inhale this sin,
As she wipes the soil from his face

Tattered clothes are cast aside
Their stagnant hearts begin to pound
On Passion's wings they both shall ride
Before returning to the ground...

The moon above is full and bright;
It's blessing this unholy night

A kiss goodnight, the deed is done
The tryst nears end, the lovers weep
For at the dawning of the sun,
They must at once return to sleep

-Shed no tears for Tragic Ends-

For amidst the maggots and the flies,
True love, my friend -
It never dies!

:D Very sexy! I'm not into that sort of thing but still, very sexy! Great work. I was really interested when I saw that you'd submitted a poem... especially seeing as how I'd just read some shitty poem a friend wrote. =P

"After about an hour, I was so hungry that I became delusional. I spent the next hour or two having a heated argument about the validity of Pez as the new nation currency with what appeared to be either a lawn chair or Mickey Rooney."

Awesome poem... I love how your poems are always structured... its a nice break from all the... err.. very very amateur poetry one gets to read.
Another thing that just stands out as something I really love is the bit of informality you itnroduce with the "my friend".... this poem introduces a more original and fun note into the whole cliche of neverending love... :)

:lol: I love the concept! And the last stanza is great! It's romantic..and somewhat disturbing at the same time :giggle:
