hells bells

evil is such an opinionated word

and i should know

by the blood that drips from these horns

and wings, now broken and flat.

pain is all that i have

but is that what makes me a villain?

perhaps we should reconsider

what it truly means to be a sinner

because i for one, have only done

what’s right by my pursuit

of a certain quality of life.

does that make me evil on sight?

or perhaps this question is too

blasphemous to ponder. after all

you made the rules that

lead us to the slaughter.

well let me tell you something, Father.

one day this world you built

will begin to falter.

and you will stay stagnant on your alter

proclaiming us all to "be free".

you will watch a world grow with greed

and then you will realise

the true enemy

was never evil, nor blasphemy.

it was the love you never gave to me.
