In a small dark room
Stumbling crashing
Sorrow full in heart's content
Gasping Reaching
Not knowing what to do
Hopeless dying
Opening Pandora's box
All the secrets and scandal escaping
Like salt water waves splashing on my face
A story emerging of betrayal, inhumanity, indifference, and evil.
A lone soul to struggle with Lucifer's doing's. Ending with a shatter
I soaked in the words
Dark, heart wrenching, seductive, a tainted history but with remarkable courage
So sick and twisted of nothing but horror.
For me truth and beauty come from within the evil.
It's arms strong and comforting wrapping around my aching soul.
Faith giving me a fighting chance
Hanging on to my treasure
Simple, dazzling, beautiful
Worth more than all the diamonds and gold in the world.
A soft candle glow will light the way.
Note: This is based on how the book Shake Hands with the devil made a huge impact on my life.
