I saw the devil last night;
His eyes burned deep into my soul.
The fires of hell blazed in my cheeks,
As he smiled at me,
Perfectly.
He offered me the world,
The moon and the stars;
A universe of possibilities opened,
And I was trapped.
What he offered I could not refuse;
But he took my soul,
Burnt out my heart,
Gave me everything for just one moment,
Then ripped it all away.
As he did he smiled,
Perfectly.
I saw the devil last night,
As you smiled at me,
Perfectly.

The hell of screams. Hall of dreams. From breaths of life. Not of the shackles. I await the carnality. Lust and desire. The king reigns and laughs. The devil resides. He burns. To touch in embrace.
