A Toll of the Devil

Hear the bell toll
Stroking midnight's call
Hear the ringing bell
Beckon one and all

Come now my children
Come and you will see
The darkness of your mind
The deep insanity

Come a little closer
Do not be afraid
Step a little quicker
Right into the grave

Let me take your life
I want your empty soul
Give me what I seek
Give up all control

The flames of hell close 'round
Feel the evil burn
Listen now my children
There's a lesson you must learn

Follow one by one
Deep into my lair
Follow to the blackness
As I suck out all your air

Feel your life go limp
Your body fades away
For in eternal hell
Your soul is here to stay

So listen now my children
Hear the bell, it calls
Enter now my chamber
No escape from these walls

Listen long and hard
Hear the tolling of the bell
Welcome all my children
To my land of hell

    You gave a voice to your imagery

    which is trickey to do! And you pulled it off without
    losing the poetic form! Applaud-Applaud-Applaud!
    Very difficult to do! You wrote this cleverly and smart,
    and your voice haunted and taunted us upon each line
    and verse. You a are a lovely dark mistress of Write!
    Excellent job!

    Well, damn, I don't want anyone getting he wrong idea. It is NOT about little children, but children as in the soul's of all humans. Just had to clarify that.

    Thanks for the comments, appreciate it.
