Blessing of the Night
thank you all for suffering my barrage of poems. the patience of this forum is commendable. i can be a tad overzealous at times. i've had the pleasure of reading a few of the stories here in the Fan Fiction section and thankfully have more to go. i want to thank the authors for allowing my love affair with LTROI to continue in ways i never imagined but certainly enjoy. i have been suprised and thrilled, touched and moved, concerned and frightened, amused and entertained, and always left wanting more. no doubt these great works require much time and are quite taxing but the end results are wonderful. this collection of words has been inspired by these works which are greatly appreciated. thanks.http://let-the-right-one-in.com/fancont ... -the-night

You've outdone yourself with this one! Its beautiful, intense, and true to Oskar's unspoken thoughts, IMO.

And that is what love is all about.To know her thoughts both sincere and frightening.
To be her comfort and refuge after the dark gift has compelled her.
To know her fully, with tears and smiles, claws and fangs.
I'll break open the story and tell you what is there. Then, like the others that have fallen out onto the sand, I will finish with it, and the wind will take it away.

Well, DarkMoon, you sure gripped that character by the throat and made him spit out his heart.

Re: Blessing of the Night
I´m going to be the asshole on this one , solely because no one ever seems to provide constructive criticism on any of the posted fan fiction of this board.
You clearly have visible talent for poems and lyrical writing but every one of you poems seems to me like a rewording of the previous one.
To me it looks like you keep adressing the same themes and emotions , not trying to take stuff into a new direction.
Most striking negative point for me is that I feel like you are misinterpreting Oskar ( I am aware of the fact that this is "FICTION BASED ON A FANS VIEW") but that shouldn´t allow anyone to completely reform a characters mind set , which to me you did.
Before everyone jumps me be aware that I am not saying you can´t write poems , you clearly have some talent for that , but you should bear in mind that presenting your work on an open board can be embraced AND criticized.
( The excessive use of to/for me is basically a glowing billboard of THIS IS MY OPINION)
