Trap-Door Lover

[phoenix*angel*13]

here's one of my poems about our beloved phantom/erik, it's mainly based on the leroux version.

[glow=red,2,300]A shadow lurking underneath it all

Covered, cloaked, hidden in darkness
Suddenly appearing out of thin air
In unknown, dark places
Disappearing in a flash as soon as you see

A plotting, pursuing, thinking darkness
That silhouette against the candle light
His words surround me
He invades my every thought

Threatened, thrilled, enticed by his darkness
I am completely entwined in his spell
Captivated by his presence
I cannot deny his power

Pleading, pulling, turning me away from darkness
You drag me high above his secret passage-ways
And meet me in secret, but he knows all
He'll always be here with me

Those hurting, hating, wanting eyes follow in darkness
Though we find the highest roof-top
He's still there watching in the shadows
Waiting for me to get away from you

Loved, lusted and plunged into darkness
He'll keep me locked away forever
Deep down away from you
In his world mysterious as night

My trap-door lover[/glow]

wow! that is so good! It's exactly like Leroux's phantom. I love this verse
Threatened, thrilled, enticed by his darkness
I am completely entwined in his spell
Captivated by his presence
I cannot deny his power

That verse exactly sums up the way I feel about him!
