Description I crave the heat of your life,
wish those liquid rubies would
dance over my cold, numb fingers
as the paling satchel
that is your skin grows
pinprick ridges:
small mountains rising up from
fresh leather.
How I delight in peeling the
flesh from your body,
your muscles, your bones…
making it mine,
taking the world that belongs to me
from the dying light behind your eyes.
I’ll strip your scalp of
those luscious locks of mahogany silk
and wear it myself,
masking my true identity behind
a dead lie.
I’ll scoop out your eyes,
just squeeze them from your skull
like I would seeds from an orange,
to know what I look like
through those star-burst blue irises.
I will extract your heart,
your vital organs no longer in use
(reminding me of empty rooms,
stained with the memory of
true happiness)
and replace it with my own,
leaving you to suffer my pains…
because you knew nothing,
nothing of such
anguish
throbbing within this biological cage.
Once the surging of
this new muscle grafts
itself to my being,
I will bury old memories
within your empty shell
and steal the life
I should have had...

Very gracefully provocative I thought. If this poem were an image, I do believe it would be nudity, or revealing to say the least. Perhaps a bloody deceased carcass? Lovely expressions & imagery you've projected here, clever you!

Take care hon!

This is wonderfully written! It really fits the theme of obsession, and I was impressed by the way that, even though I was repulsed in the beginning, I couldn't help but keep reading. There was something about both the imagery and the emotion behind the actions that made it compelling to read.

I don't question your sanity.
It is dark and scary but still really cool.

Wow, I was actually thinking of doing the serial-killer thing too... this is really good tho, perhaps because Im attracted to dark art, but this speak volumes. Nice word flow too

Figured id add, that I adore this line;

I’ll strip your scalp of
those luscious locks of mahogany silk

Well it is kind of graphic but if I were you, I'd consult the faq about the definitions of the warnings or the GM for that gallery.

Honestly nobody really pays attention to the literature on DA so I think you're okay where you are.
