Lust the Demon

you used your charm
one daughter 
of satan
in slithering
sins of the flesh
eating into the heart

burning down castles
in black burning
sulphur dragon breath
lusts the demon of love
tearing down foundations
lusting broken in heart
temptation comes
her craving darkness
a joker

chopping axe like
in black words
muttered in biting
upon the softest apple
sweet suffering poison
injected into the core
loveless in the heart
from the darkest 
of darkest dungeons

you hail the serpent
of all deceivers
wicked in your ways
to see your face
 two faced meddusa
a banshee wails
crying cold 
as ice feelings
sends shivers

to the very soul
rattling to the very bones
sinking into a dark 
drowning feeling 
black velvet abyss
the eyes eating 
into the light
clouds falling poisonous
black pain

in agony you smile
thundering roars in hell
the devil's angel
weeping in the valley 
among'st the dead
void of good

lightning shines reality
as the black clouds raise
tears from the heavens fall
breaks the chains
heavenly upon the ground
love remains in splashes
black pear droplets
of hurt upon the ground
in despair

a cat o nine tails
lashing 
cutting strips
stripping pieces 
in the deepest void
wrenching within 
its grasp

like the great boa
a serpent of lust
weighs heavy 
upon the shoulders
crushing gasps
squeezing the life 
of the heart

lust played the field
in a foolish game
destroying heaven's garden
breathing hell
i burdened the cost
cutting the black heart
 from out of me
alone colours
burning in the deepest

cast were light 
was forsaken
until the sword of truth
flashed in hell
worn down
i saw you lust
the face of nightmares

as the soul weep
the blood 
of the innocence
i see the light
the blood boils
spilled in darkness
battled scared
love shines 

the mask 
uncovered
the demon 
you held 
within
a black heart
