Behind dark shadows
Of caverns and mountains
He looks...
He smiles...

A dagger drips red
With the blood of the dead
As the ground smiles
At what it has accomplished

Darkness falls
In a forest nearby
Wolves howl with delight
Finishing a meal before
the rising moon

Evil never too close
And good never too far
I watch the happy sunset
And freeze...
As the moon arises

Speaking to my mother
Asking what is the sound
That freezes me
"My daughter" she says

The Devil's Chant

Topic: DarkPoetry

As the sun sets slowly
Behind dark shadows
Of caverns and mountains
He looks...
He smiles...

A dagger drips red
With the blood of the dead
As the ground smiles
At what it has accomplished

Darkness falls
In a forest nearby
Wolves howl with delight
Finishing a meal before
the rising moon

Evil never too close
And good never too far
I watch the happy sunset
And freeze...
As the moon arises

Speaking to my mother
Asking what is the sound
That freezes me
"My daughter" she says
"This is the devil's chant"

I KNOW IM DIFFERENT FROM OTHERS..
I MAY BE WRONG OR RIGHT
I KNOW I SEEK GOD IN DIFFERENT WAYS
THEN OTHERS DO
BUT MY FRIEND THIS IS SO TRUE...
THE BIBLE SAYS TO CHOOSE THIS DAY WHO YOU WILL SERVE..
IF ITS NOT GOD THEN YOU KNOW ITS THE DEVIL....WE ARE GIVEN MANY CHOICES
HOW TO LIVE AND WHAT TO WRITE...
I MYSELF CHOOSE THE CHOICE TO T ALK ABOUT HIM..YOU CHOOSE TO WRITE WHAT YOU WANT AND IT IS GOOD...BUT THINK ABOUT HOW WELL YOU WILL DO IF YOU WRITE ABOUT HIM.AND FOR HIM....HOW FAR YOUR WORK WILL GO AND HOW MUCH HE WILL HONOR IT...YOUR CHOICE...DONT MIND ME...JUST CHATTING :) TAKE CARE HE LOVES YOU...
