Terra trembles in terror As she looks upon her form: Burnt and bruised by greedy children, Who drink her lifeblood raw. Even as she spins in despair, She hopes they will someday care. But they return with needles To take more than their share. Even as her sucklings greedily draw blood from her depleted ******* Terra still gives in. She gives in to their unwanted caress. Deeper and deeper they go, Imposing upon her great sorrow. She looks on as they carve her bones And extract her golden marrow. "Terra will soon be gone," I hear them say. But what of the price? What of the price Her children will someday have to pay?

Terra In Terror
Sinners know his name And believers know his wrath. Children grimace in pain; Hearing his name that ripples Through spacious veins. Temptation is his tool; His recruiting stick That tears humanity a hole. Upon the spit, he roasts charred Splits of souls; feeding fiends Their portions prime and right. Do not pretend you know not This vicious fiend: he that lingers Deep within and ignites only pain -- We all know his name.

We All Know His Name
One day they will see your worth. Discarded by all, you stood hurt. Yes, deaf they may be to your plea, But one day, their ears will see. Do not sink my love, in despair, Just know that life is not always fair. Tis' a Pain Platter; we all have our share. But patience will bend, but it shall never tear. Worry not little distraught soul, The world will see you as you are: Virtuous and rare, kind and fair. One day, you'll see, the world WILL care!

One Day they Will See Your Worth
Lucifer met me one night, And in my hand he placed his torch, Burning will vengeful delight; Commanding that I build his church. Above the rock, he sought refuge; Promising glory and golden beams. I could not plainly refuse, For he the only consoler it seems. Angrily, I exed him with the rock And built his temple from scratch, I watched my victims run amuck; Kissing the dirt, I had no match. Now, my mission is complete, But I alone, suffered defeat.

Lucifer Met Me One Night
Slowly, quietly, the night turns into day As I look towards the heavens in dismay Clasping my hands, teary-eyed, I began to pray Forgive me lord for I am but a worthless soul I’m filled with their blood, their sweat, their spit!” I was once young, my rage was extreme I stood in my circle and laughed amidst their screams Forgive me lord for I am but a lost soul Drifting amongst demons, my demons, their eyes ever so cold All the lives I have wasted, the world once laid at my feet Strongest of them all! I snatched, I ripped, never faced defeat! Until now… Forgive me lord as I bow, I am weak I silenced so many and now I am unable to speak But like an unexpected storm she came A soul that tamed my beast I saw the light and for the first time, I had found peace She held my arm, looked into my eyes and nodded My blade crashed against stone She vowed that I would never be alone, never be apart She washed away the blackness that once engulfed my heart Forgive me lord, why did my storm have to die? For the souls that I have taken, you should have chosen me My eyes are now open for love has tamed this slayer Take heed lost souls and hear this old sinner’s prayer.

A Sinner's Prayer
Death comes swiftly, I heard them say A creature of the night that wanders the day A vile and worthless immortal created by the gods to end our suffering Make haste serpent! Take me away! Alone and cold in the rain, I lay I heard him coming, from the abyss, screeching, slithering… Suddenly, I felt a hand pressing against my gaping wound And a warm breath against my cheek “Fear not my love, worry no more, the sparrow will take you home” It was her, my redemption, and no more was I alone “Pay no mind to the trickster in black that cometh yonder “Just follow the sparrow my love lest he rip your soul asunder”   He’s had arrived, I could smell the putrid odor emanating from his presence. Death was here! The relentless being! Hissing and rattling, depicting his dominance   “Where are you oh sparrow?” I cried frantically as he dragged me away. Over the ravine and into the blackness I was awoken by the grass brushing against my face. Too tired to open my eyes, I cried for I knew, death would never let go As I felt its grip tighten, in fear I opened my eyes just in time to see, The millions lying lifeless beside me What a shame, the sparrow never came Life or death, it’s all the same
