Bone Yard
His tongue slides tauntingly around his mouth,
a trail of saliva left in its tracks.
He ogles her peaceful body,
her lids closed with ease.
He inches his body closer,
with an excited smile tugging at his lips.
He outstretches a shaky hand,
reaching into the
black bed’s depths.
The body is chilled,
soft with emaciated flesh,
sunken eyes seep deeper into their decayed sockets,
threatening to drop within her hollow skull.
He stiffens with excitement,
at the appealing sight,
Such a tender delicacy,
saved just for him.
Lower he drops,
now confined in the casket's clutches,
her body so frail and weak beneath him.
His head snaps backwards,
while screams of pleasure snake from his mouth,
the only sound possible to be heard,
in the dark and isolated patch.

I dont know why it keeps not posting my feedback, but lets try this again! xO
So I was thorougly creeped out by this, but it was a VERY strong poem! I could see nothing wrong with it- from the first word, the poem captures you, holds you down and keeps you reading to the very last line. I was enrapt in the images.

"It's a saying they have, that a man has a false heart in his mouth for the world to see, another in his breast to show to his special friends and his family, and the real one, the true one, the secret one, which is never known to anyone except to himself alone, hidden only God knows where."<br /> -James Clavell, "Shogun"
