Creature of my own design,
Brought to bear upon this world,
Taking all that had been mine,
Deadly talons neatly curled.

Demon of Angelic form,
Crafted from the depths of me,
Spirit pure and heart so warm,
All that I could never be.

Spark of life that chose to stay,
Making way for something new,
Glowing brighter each new day,
Forcing me to see this through.

Sunlight on my darkened mind,
Creeping underneath my skin,
Love that I could never find,
Keeping me from hate and sin.
