Entry for the Little Shop of Horror Club
![]() a messenger brought you the tragic news that I died at war, but he was wrong you thought I was dead and leaped to your death I forsook god and drank from the cup of eternal damnation and have been cursed since then I never stopped loving you my beloved, my life, my wife and I searched for you time after time today I found you in the new world you don’t remember me but didn’t pull away from my touch now I regret to be a blood thirsty monster and losing my soul my heart no longer beats except when I touch you save my soul kill the dreadful undead I have become and I’ll wait for you in heaven above

"Little Shop of Horror Club Event: This week event is a FREE FOR ALL. Do you prefer prose? Write a story! Are you a poet? Write a poem. Keep it in the dark genre. Other than that there are NO RULES. Show us what you've got." - Thanks to Marilyn Hamilton, the Club Organizer Gogyohka is a five-line Japanese poetic form with no strict rules on syllable count but as brief as possible. You may use any theme. Lines are grammatically connected. Alliteration, personification, and metaphor are okay. It usually doesn't rhyme, but natural not forced rhymes are okay. Japanese poets have written gogyohka since the 1910s. However, they did not name the form until 1983 by poet Enta Kusakabe. source = writers digest source=wikipedia Thank you for reading and reviewing my poem. Gypsy Pictures from my Pinterest account.
