Hell of a Love
I wear the scars
burnt
by the flames from her lips,
so much fire filled her eyes
I just couldn't resist
the temptation to kiss
a girl made from Hell.
They labeled me the boy
who fell from Heaven
to endure eternal torment
trying to find
what it means to love
a demon so much he would cut
his wrists in sin
so that he could see her once again.
Now I let the stars pour
from my burning wounds
until the last of the light
in my heart
fades out
and I fall through the earth
as a body of fire
towards my Hell
of a love.

Thanks for the concern Shannon, the piece is actually fictional though. It's written with an angel and demon metaphor for how much as humans we sacrifice for love and relationships, and trying to find what it really means to love someone "til death"... much appreciated Voodoo, thanks for the response.

I love this so much. It like the quote "Once upon a time, an angel and a devil fell in love. It did not end well." It reminds me of my past relationship.
