Dante Alighieri 1308:midway upon the journey of our life i found myself within a forest
Dark,for the straight forward path had been lost
Dante: 3rd canto
Gate of hell:abandon faith ye all who enters
Here
Hell
Once revered as angels
Now feared as demons
Once bowed upon
Now scorned and looked down upon
A paradise of lost souls
Heathen,heretics and pagans
Frozen screams amid fiery fire
Searing heat upon all cold hearts
Who defied heavens defends their
Breath in hades
Who never heeds repay their wrong deeds
For the escape from hell is sealed
For whom sealed their fate
The underworld awaits with hate
Saturated in sins
Evil ever since
Time immemorial dwells
In their deepest recess
A special place awaits
Baring its fangs ready to
Devour their soulless flesh
For the darkness in their heart
Can only be lit by hell fire
Those dead inside will be woken
By pain
No escape from hell
Abandon all hope
For eternal misery you will *****
Seeking redemption
That you avoided as plague
When alive
No laughter but cries,groan and screams
Dry patched faces where no tears streams
Hell is like undisturbed dream
Full of fear and grimm
So ye all who enters the gates of hell
Abandon any hope of stirring from
This nightmare
