Follower of Eve

Follower of Eve- Bringing about the fall of all man. your desire, your humanity, turning your back on the Source that gave you Life. Taking His place as Ruler of the world you stole from Him. yourself Deified, crowned by your own hand. Trying to reign through darkness when you've extinguished the light. Life preserved by the beating of a cold heart, hardened and sheltered away from true warmth and love. The mind clouded, the eye blind. The body painfully dies alone... And as you fall to your knees, your crown slips from your bowed head and with it the veil that shielded your view. Eyes opened to the world. Tears falling like the Blood from the Cross. Losing Control. Relinquishing the Power you thought you had. A mortal immortalized, through humility. And God remains God.
