 The Destruction of the Dark Angel

The Destruction of the Dark Angel

 

She tore my heart from within

    My breast.

As I watched, she ingested the

    Remainder of my soul.

The Dark Angel creepeth around me

    Consuming my life, to lead

Me into her world,

    A world of darkness where she

Is the master of all the demons within me.

    She laughs with a sinister smile

As I look for an outlet, but

    None is to be found, for

This darkness is within my mind, not

    A world that she holds power over.

But with that realization there is still

    No escape because she

Still exists, destroying my life

    And everything that emanates

Light that might help me to escape.

    Darkness smothers me, encroaching

And entreating upon my flesh,

    Pressures unbearable.

Suddenly a meager light from the truth

    Within my consumed soul has

Finally destroyed her.
