Literature Text

While lost in the valley of broken dreams,
My hope went frigid and cracked at the seams.
Now I’m walking on pieces of shattered regimes,
And  Lucifer over me swallows my screams.

I’m dancing with demons in passionate flames,
And laughing out loud at their dangerous games;
Serpents are coiling and staking their claims
Piercing my skull with the sharpest of chains

Heaven please hear me as I desperately yell,
I’ve succumbed so willingly to my personal Hell;
The Devil draws nigh, ringing the mind-tearing bells,
He knows the way out but he will never tell.

I’m drowning and burning in this living fire,
Being held and bruised by the hands of Ire;
My penance is lewd, and my sins shall require
My body to Satan for his demons to sire.

Children, oh Children! I’ve become the Queen...
Of this decayed domain that should never be seen!
Flames run rampant in my soul’s deep ravine,
And the tears on my cheeks are sparks left unseen.

Self-deprecation is such a twisted thing,
And to the last of my hope I desperately cling;
But it’s slipping with every beat of the wing
Of Satan’s black Pegasus carrying his King.

It’s too late for redemption; my Judgment has passed,
I was charged for my sins and in Hell I’ve been cast;
In the Pit I hear cheering, everyone is amassed,
The Devil is smiling, and this word is my last.
When one has done something terrible and fallen into the trap of the weak...
An advice to the hopeful; don't let yourself be controlled by what you know will lead you to ruin. What may nourish you will also destroy you.

Have a great day, folks! ^_<
