Are You Afraid?

I see you looking

At the pictures on my wall.

I see that fear in your eyes

As you read over the quotes.

I notice the terror

As you see me watching you.

Are you scared

Of what the pictures imply?

Are you fearful

Of what the quotes say?

Are you paranoid

Of what I am capable of doing?

It’s a simple concept –

I love blood and death.

It’s a passion;

A pleasure;

An addiction;

An infatuation;

An obsession.

Does that idea

Make you tremble?

Does it make you

Want to run and hide?

Don’t you like

That bright crimson red?

Do you not appreciate

The joy that a knife can bring?

Are you worried,

My darling,

Wishing you could die?

Well, Baby,

Your wish is my command.

I ask you one final time,

Are you afraid?

You should be…

You always find some way to blow peoples mind with your poetry, Great work you, Orlando

[An owl on the moon]

Each phrase is laced with bitter blood, dripping on each letter. Deeply moving with anxiety and passion, the primal scream for recognition. Powerful in all respects!

I am the walrus...

This piece just SCREAMS SADISM! I LOVE IT!
You got the response I'm sure you wanted out of me.
As I read, that small little smirk worked its way onto my face, slowly followed by that morbid smile that's usually dripping with blood. A very good write. Don't change a thing. I love it.
