Mesmerized, I became
peering into the darkness

The Moon brilliantly danced
upon the diamonds buried
deep within the snow
Reflecting
Oh, The purest white

tinged
with the blood of your prey at midnight

A stifled scream slowly died
as your gaze fell upon mine
Oh, the pity!

Your rugged weary soul
it sang
beside the blood of your prey
At Midnight

Nice.  I just noticed something else.  Your name and my signature have alot of Jimi in common.

and whatever else...I'm thinking this is beautifully dark and stuff.... god it's a good thing I lost my pen & that my muse is on strike

If at first you don't succeed destroy all the evidence that you tried.

I read this three times and I'm sure I missed any hidden meanings there are, but I did enjoy this. Thanks for the read

Sky lol . . .

it was an image I had one night looking
out my back window into the newly fallen snow . . . I saw the snow glistening and for some odd reason thought of a lost soul . . .

When I saw this, it surprised me, hence the stifled scream and the blood being his trials stained in the pure snow and the pity sang, I saw it on his face - beside the blood of his prey at midnight . . .
prey being himself

I know . . . strange
thank you
