Shakespearean Sonnet Written For Endless Night Poetry Contest. Three prompts used.
When darkness overcomes the light of life
The Succubus of my dreams comes to call.
When lightness gives in to the fight of strife
The Island Of Death wants me in its hall.
I fend off dueling death with sacrifice.
and hope the Siren's shriek is satisfied.
If murder fails me once I do it twice
And once even gave a groom and his bride.
I hope the haunting hunger is sated
With every single dark death I compel.
I know its never really abated
Until my fate has finally befell.
For now I fight by giving over blood
To try and stay afloat amidst the flood.
