Wow! Sorry I came late to the "Dark Shadows" party but congratulations on taking the win with this one, Karen!

Is it me or is he rather handsome?

I could do a paper cut...

Where are all those sixes when I need them most; and although, I seldom give up a six for poetry, no matter how outstanding it is, I'd certainly have to give one for your last few. Thanks for sharing.

    I tell you pal,this one just flowed out of me. I had the title, and I was going to go the naughty way, but this came out instead. More refined. And the picture was the clincher. Thanks for the read. Karen

Ciao writer! You now have 8 votes!

Edward in Twilight was not happy but everything change when he met Bella.

He didn't want to turn her into a vampire, but she wanted to be like Edward, young and beautiful forever.

I enjoy your style, it flows well and captivates.

Lovely! Beautifully fluent and chilling. Nirvana is the target and the blood on her finger is enough to stir his vampire lust. This is a great entry for the contest under the brief of deadly sins. Well done and good luck! Debbie

Your poem tends to paint a picture of the craving of the dead to return back to life and enjoy the things the living do. It flowed quite well, and made a beautiful read. Well done, dear.

This was a really dark, yet rather deceptively deep poem. I would suggest a wee change. You were a bit too verbose with the line "am I here, am I not here." J would suggest condensing it to improve story flow. Other than that, this was a great rendition of the lonesome some of us feel.

    I was explaining he was not alive, but not dead. I appreciate your taking the time to review me. I like it as it is. But, I thank you for your opinion.

Wow, this is a great deadly sin poem. The words are raw and paint a scene for the reader like they are sitting on the sidelines. The poem flows nicely.

Well done and good luck in the contest

A very striking and powerful presentation, portraying one of the deadly sins, Lust. Great choice of font colour and background colour.
Good luck in the contest...

    Thank you for the review. When I first got here, I was against using pictures, and other additives. But I came to understand they all help explain our thoughts.
    I love picking the font, the matting color, the font color, and the picture now. Thank you again.

Your poem "Lust for Life" is a haunting and evocative exploration of loneliness and desire, fitting perfectly within the theme of the seven deadly sins. The imagery and tone create a vivid picture of longing and the eternal search for connection
