Genesis

Beside you
stood the tomb
painted pearl white,
concealing the
reddish thromb.

I pine for your
ever credible
resurrection.

But you still
appear dormant.
A rejection.

Days pass and you
eventually emerge,
placid and aplomb.

Only a tooth!

Wisdom
still buried deep
inside the catacomb.

Hats off ! This is poetic sublime.
Guess what... I dont know if you have heard this track called "nymphatemine" by Cradle of Filth that so so so so much relates to this poem .. do hear or may be just find the lyrics nan ...you will be surprised :) .... I feel like having a vampyric addiction to your poems now :)
