Painting by Seren Roberts

She gazed into my haunted eyes Knowing my devotion was absolute and complete She fulfilled my nefarious dreams Ever so peaceful in her green eyed slumber She struggled with the rope and tape I whispered in her ear Relax, your destiny is clear You shall sail to the sweetest of places I shall allow you your escape Slowly, smothered with my pillowed love She lies lifeless In peace With my poems upon her chest She has found paradise at last As the light fades from the far away sea Old roads become watery graves North she sails with my words upon her very soul Dedicated to Seren Roberts the Green Eyed Girl of Wales

This is a well written dark write. So chilling and scary and ect. You let your reader see into the mind a killer. But when I see your note, I see another perspective and my mind starts to wander. And no I wouldn't want to join -7 :-) Alexis

I think I will pass on joining the club. This is indeed disturbing. You gave us a chilling perspective.

I wonder what emotion you wanted to provoke. Well told write that haunts me with sadness as one with twisted emotions brags of the useless death of one so innocent, a death that is actually prized and cherished by him, the slayer. Fairy Tales are actually dark and this was successfully dark as well ... CayCay

There was a contest, about writing about Murder, and this was a take on that! :)
