I'm waiting in my cold cell,
Listen to the cries from Hell.
Rage flows thru my veins violently,
Moving in darkness silently.
Hear them shriek,
All too weak.
Reign supreme over the living dead,
Mercyless thoughts in your head.
Create another fiend for a thrill,
So beautiful it'll make you kill.
Cry out "THE DEVIL IS IN ALL OF YOU"
Wondering what you can do.
Life of Mercyless Fate,
Despised characteristic trate.
Fiest upon the lies,
Transform in the skies.
Cruising gallantly through the night,
So close to you yet nowhere in sight.
Defy me cannons loose,
Break out the new noose.
Strangle in a bloody rage,
Like a rat kept in a small cage.
Inhale my fire,
Exhale your own desire.
I'll meet you in the dark,
Attack like a hungry shark.
Regurgitate your soul,
Throw you into a black hole.
I'll see you in the darkness,
Waiting at the Dark Crossroads...

Torn are her limbs
By quiet hands that
Tug life(color) out of her.
Gnawing edges round
Into a broken(satisfying)

Oooooo wow!! I LOVE this. It's so dark, so depressing, so extremely cool.

The imagery, like Cherish said, is so morbid. It got me in hook, line and sinker. There's so much darkness in this that it actually makes the piece appear a lot better. Sometimes you can have too much (very rare occasion there) but you pull it off nicely. The rhyme scheme, I'll admitt, did annoy me in a few places but it makes up for it in the wonderful chilling visuals.

Excellent write and I enjoyed the read a ton. Thanks for sharing.

i just read this again and live picked "Cry out "THE DEVIL IS IN ALL OF YOU"
Wondering what you can do" as being my favourite line...you did very well in this kyle...im still loving it ...
oh and you reminded me of "bullets with butterfly wings" towards the end of the poem...good imagery there
