Moonlight Sonata 
by trajik (Verse one, three and five) and King Soul (Verse two and four)


Me and my girl Norah going to see a horror flick
i'd do anything for her, i will always support the chick
she's got a gorgeous smile and i love that she's short and thick
time to appease appetites, locating somewhere sort of quick
eat your cake and have it twice she's heavenly as afterlife
for my sweet car i sacrifice for our dinner will be half as nice
as my sweet beauty deserves like restaurants you need reserves
we parked but she said not to turn off her favorite Beatles verse
i wasn't sure of which song but the white album was playing
song's over, ignition off "time to go," my stomach's saying

Dinner was perfect, expensive but I'm certain she was worth it,
now they open the curtains, images of vermin being swallowed by serpents.
My lady grabs my hand, like a trance as our fingers dance,
maybe there's a chance that we'll advance before the fever can.
The full moon lights up her eyes, a fight ignites inside of my mind,
it's too soon to dine on her life, a ripened spine defines her prime.
My ribs begin to intense, time to amend with the demon within,
a kiss... drenched in human blood sends me into this bliss.
Her scent poisoned by death, each breath poised by the next,
skin colder than snow, holding her close as I dissect her chest. 

my hair is getting thicker and has accelerated growth
two people in this picture and i eviscerated both
murderer and a victim, look at the monster i've become
must run from this affliction before costing my freedom
a final time i embrace my sweetheart and watch her dead face
it's vile but i will taste her blood and i'll miss her red lace
remember my audience i look around to viewing eyes
witnesses, it's obvious that i require a new disguise
screaming fills the atmosphere i feel a deep lust for violence
need to escape fast from here, closing in are rushing sirens

Alone in the forest, no time to cope for the corpses,
my soul is remorseless, moonlight shows my metamorphosis.
Hope for redemption, life can't hold in the resentment,
bones begin to fit in, I cry trying to control the tension.
Human again, what have I done? A woman or kid? Blood on my tongue,
Guns? I got to run! Love wasn't enough... I succumbed to the lust.
Just when I found Ms. Right I took her out and split her spine,
hit the ground, quick and precise, headaches from pitches too high.
A werewolf... a monster... a creature of the night...
and I'm no longer responsible for any demeanor in sight. 

the sirens are upon me as i witness the sun dawning
distraught and acting oddly, i'm almost certain the cops see
three bullets to the body, the only way they could calm me
was already one monster tonight, perhaps i can be a zombie?

Wow...

I wasn't expecting that...

The darkness in this song really consumed me, and created a pure image of black smoke, which is really powerful... It was an amazing read, and rather captivating in that dark way. Every line was deep and meaningful as well... Excellent job.

Also, on the technical side, the flow may have been a bit off-balance, but it matches the character very well, so there's nothing wrong with it. Also, the rhyme scheme was solid and consistent throughout.

A fantastic piece altogether -- definitely well-deserving of my like and the 5* rating I'm giving it.

Very well done

I was REALLY confused in the second verse. I was like "Wait, what the hell happened?" but it was fully explained in the next verse's first words so it meshed together really well. Rhyming and flow was very basic but fit the piece perfectly. It started off with some really nice and pleasant imagery and took it's turn rapidly. I'm sure when you guys were writing this, one of the conflicts would have been "When do we turn it? Do we go on for a bit or do we do it quickly?". It was a risk to turn it in the second verse but I feel it really paid off. You got enough imagery and tone going in the first verse that it allowed the next ones to be focused on the turn which got just the right amount of time.

I didn't really notice the transition between writers which is a rare occurrence. Sometimes you want it to be felt but here, I think it paid off that you guys maintained a very similar style.

I really thought the ending worked, maybe not for a lot of others, but for me as I actually originally thought it was a zombie story. I thought when the curtains were drawn and the moonlight hit her eyes, that what had happened was you saw out the window that the zombie apocalypse had spread, and the "fever" consumed you and you feasted on her. I figured out this wasn't the path quite quickly but it was interesting to see it come up again later.

A really originally thought out piece. Some of these would take place at "Makeout Point" or in the movie theatre but it was an interesting idea to take it to a restaurant. It allowed a little bit more of a setting and imagery than usual which was really good.

Overall, a really well done piece by both of you. My only question is....isn't this dude an adult? Get a fucking alarm for your phone or something man. Full moons happen several times a year mate :D

Trajik- your kicking-off was great.. Starting was like an introduction to me and i really enjoyed it(was quick to paint the picture of the lady).. The end rhyme fusing with the the 85% accurate structure which gave birth to a smooth flow, really great how you stop(when your verse end) and pick up(when it's your turn).. I don't pay attention to your work since i came but this particularly drop will keep you on my radar..

GREAT WORK....

king soul- always a fan of your stories... A very poetic story you got there and your relation to the content was really great.. At a point, your verse insert the disc for me; it was as if i'm watching the movie and that really surged-up my interest towards reading it.. I don't like reading a very long note except it worth it and this aint an exception.. NICE WORK BRO, YOU AND NIGMA GOT THIS TOPICAL STUFF SPINNING AROUND YOUR HEAD..

DOPE DROP-OVER-ALL...

Hope to learn from you soon(when i start receiving PM)
