SIGNED PAPERBACK

A dark and daring addition to the literary world of vampirism, this is a collection of rhyming and freestyle poetry that explores the often taboo themes of power, possession and seduction. Emotionally charging, each poem is written from a different perspective, be it the hunter or the hunted and inspires a deeper look into the psychology of the human mind and the darker aspects of human relationships and society.

*Note: The site linked above appears to no longer exist, but A Silver Kiss used to be ranked on there as detailed above. I usually take a screenshot of every notable ranking I get, but since this was a few years ago, I'm not sure I've got an image of this one. I've searched half my PC for it. Still have to search the other half. Will post them if I find them.
Dianna.

From the poem, Blood Of Eros:
"The hunter cannot slay me, no.
Even as I'm yielding, no.
Armour falls to floor... no.
Defences lost to throes
of longing... no!"

From the poem, One Second:
"Lifelines, pale and green upon
ivory skin, under red hair make
my mouth drier, my tongue
prickle, my need to create her
even greater."

From the poem, I'd Let You:
"Too many moons I've felt you slide in close
by my side, felt your non-breath trail my neck,
carrying the scent of death which smells like
Jasmine and fairground rides by night..."

From the poem, Rebirth:
"Solace sought to ease my pain,
but pain more deadly found me slain
upon my sheets. One drop, just one
careless whim had me undone."
