The forever falling devil reaches for my heart, his talons digging deep as I am forced to sleep in his world, for evermore in the land of pure darkness. The rotten wings which once resided on his back; glorious, white, bright; now shards of glass that cut those who come too close. The fire in his heart is put out by the flood in mine; killed by the never-ending storm inside me. Flames put out by water; those who thrived in the soul fire quietened by the heartless liar who turned hell into an ocean.

The Flood
The forever falling devil reaches for my heart, his talons digging deep as I am forced to sleep in his world, for evermore in the land of pure darkness. The rotten wings which once resided on his back; glorious, white, bright; now shards of glass that cut those who come too close. The fire in his heart is put out by the flood in mine; killed by the never-ending storm inside me. Flames put out by water; those who thrived in the soul fire quietened by the heartless liar who turned hell into an ocean.
