Looking in I see him, looking back I see him, looking forward I see him. With the slightest tug his face can be pulled from the trenches of my memory. Fear, sadness, confusion leaves my heart swollen when he breaks my walls, when I see him in my reflection. But the thought of life without my Devil leaves me more frightened, He’s my crutch, my guide through this life. When I stop believing in my Devil, faith will be my crutch, intangible faith, an ominous Pit of trust. But I must trudge through the Pit, with an open heart, without my Devil, My friend. My enemy. My love.

My Devil
Looking in I see him, looking back I see him, looking forward I see him. With the slightest tug his face can be pulled from the trenches of my memory. Fear, sadness, confusion leaves my heart swollen when he breaks my walls, when I see him in my reflection. But the thought of life without my Devil leaves me more frightened, He’s my crutch, my guide through this life. When I stop believing in my Devil, faith will be my crutch, intangible faith, an ominous Pit of trust. But I must trudge through the Pit, with an open heart, without my Devil, My friend. My enemy. My love.
