weaving into the webs of the background
roses wilt beneath fingertips of satin dew
crushing a velvet heartbeat melted in the sun
yearn for the years to pale beauty on skin
suffocation and eyes glaring red
the night is long and
the stars poke death's weeping hand
the thorns of darkness tore
her flapping butterfly wings
leaving battered ribs naked and stark

Wow...the description and imagery in this poem is amazing. There are also some really nice metaphors.
This poem is fairly short...but it says all it needs to!
Great job and good luck in my contest
