The Beast
they say that something evil
was born here long ago
it's mother came from heaven
it's father from below
it grew as half a woman
evil dressed in white
with a circle of darkness around her
to protect her from the light
she once flew up to heaven
looking for her mother's love
but there they took her wings away
and cast her from above
so then she searched the darkness
and journeyed far below
but her father would not claim her
for she had an angels soul
from there she wandered aimlessly
her soul in search of peace
evil touched by goodness
part woman yet still beast
