The devil comes and sits across you. It does not have hooves and horns But instead it looks like you Your brown eyes Your somewhat curly hair Your brown complexion It owns it It wants to own you No contract is needed All the devil wants is to Lock eyes with you And all you have to do is nod Nod,your head up and down It understands It knows It does not care for your imperfections It only cares for what you hold Your soul All you want is success You nod your head up and down In a blink of an eye The devil has gone But with your soul You breathe knowing what you’ve done But continue on and head back home You enter your dark lit room The vibe is different, wait no It’s not there It’s no longer yours You feel the emptiness both in your gut And around the room Sacredness is now inferno Personal is now inferno Colors and words are now your new inferno Your thoughts are poisonous You can’t talk You can only think in this inferno No tune can mellow you out NO drugs can numb you No love can shelter you No words comfort you Everything hurts Like a roses thorn But this is your new home Now inferno.

The Devil of Happiness
Why does evil exist ? Is it because we need evil to balance out with good Do we need evil to spotlight the good? Do we **** to understand the value of life Do we steal to understand the values of possession Do we oppress others to value power and law Why do we continue living in a world we don’t want to birth our children in Why don’t we change….why?
