Angel is a hidden devil

Crying, screaming, blaming?
 It's never your fault 
Irk beneath is flaming
 And outpouring daunt

Close your eyes, hey goddess 
And let it burn 
Open them again 
And behold them burn

The avarice in their lusty eyes 
The etch itching the soul 
Restlessness, rancour, anger
 Hurl them on

There's no forgiveness 
Profuse or profound
 Tormenting the pigeon white 
A sin to be bound

Stand with resilience
 Confront them
 There's no prince in oblivions 
Just your fire, prodigious

Blistering aura
Freezing contempt 
Mind stuck there
Eyes wide open

Staring at hemlock 
Breaking the sunlight 
Midst dark canopies 
You got to rise

Vengeance creeping
 Shivers down the spine
 Misty lashes 
caging Tears of divine

Goosebumps down the knees
 Feet leaving the ground 
Shame to discern
 And confront their eyes

Loneliness or solitude
 Never a concern 
She's out to hunt
In crown of fern

Run or die
There's no escape
Not to lie
She's a tigeress in rage

Revive your turmoil
There's no other hell
You made her do it
Now, there's no dispel

Her hunger of abhorance
 Will chew you one by one 
Look up and take a glance 
Bloodshot eyes and fury imbued

Impending destruction 
Pay the price 
They say don't bother An angel 
before thinking thrice

You summoned the devil 
Insurmountable whose wrath 
Keep falling in the pitch
 Until you meet your death
