The Dark Approach
Hidden in shadow,
it lurks about our minds.
Deep within our souls.
It plugs into our reasoning.
They see us and observe us intensely.
Hoping to catch our faults.
Stabbing ideas and thoughts into us.
Without the slightest regret.
Scrambling to trip us,
to fall in their streams of nets
rigged around us, ever waiting
for the slightest mistake.
What must be done, they whisper.
We can't keep up with Him.
Hell's gates are waiting,
the lines of dead are withering.
The Devil
You fools, we have no time.
The Nemesis is conquering the flesh.
We must stand our ground,
for the time has come to act.
