Harvest Moon

Folder: 
INSANITY

Silky white beams

Peek through the overhead clouds

Giving my skin

A pale glow

I look up at the full moon

A smirk tugs at the corner of my crimson lips

And my green eyes come to life

Black cloth cloaks my body

Blending me with the shadows

The adrinaline runs through my veins

As I stalk, scanning the crowd of people

I slip into the shadows

Bloodlust is clawing at my mind

My eyes suddenly become clearer

Red, they've changed

My hands shake as it overtakes me

And I raise my head

Moonlight strikes my eyes

As I slowly walk into the crowd of..

Unsuspecting victums

The moonlight gives me a glow

The power to kill

The smell of blood fills the air as

Red beams peek through the clouds

It has begun

I loved it! The first poem I ever wrote when I was ten was about a Harvest Moon! You need to read the books "Tithe" and "Valiant" by Holly Black. I think that you'd love the angst, betrayal, and magick of these urban faerytales. Keep up the amazing work! Oh, and you should write about Morgan Le Fey, if you ever have the time or inclination.
