Back to Black

Missing image

At one point a slave to the darkness
Now a heavenly creature
Playing stringed instruments in the angels' court yard
Entertaining its residents with beauty unheard of
Celestial citizens would stand outside the gate
Possessing frozen gazes
Listening with eager ears

Watching as magic took place
But this was not the life for me
I'd had enough

Now I'm back to black
Here to have fun
Causing chaos and destruction at my leisure
Corrupting any man who should look my way

My sinfulness would be idolized by the naive

Becoming a god to evil doers

Though the holy ones will never greet me again
The abyss will meet me with open arms

    Nice....

    .... Love this one the words stand alone though. The image I feel detracts from the actual poem. I love the words, yours are always beautiful and a pleasure to read!

    Wow this is really good. I love how one stanza is good and the other is bad. Well done!
