Hell Hath Fury

On the cusp of last winter’s grasp
Heated words come to light from the past
Hell hath fury for one so wretched
Such as I whom envies his Father
Mad with dementia


I fall...
Spiraling through the coldest night
Scorned and discarded before morning’s light
The sights beheld are wiped from memory
Stars collapse under the weight of tragedy

Failure and shame burn deep in my heart
I should have known right from the start
The dark feeds bloody knives in the gray
Days ahead when jealous angels pine away

Poisonous eons carry on until
Bitter blood burns inside

Dawning...
Trident gods and dead behemoths
And seraphim whimpering their laments
Choking ash is mixed with misery
The lightning strikes on souls filled with agony

No golden halls laced with roses and thorns
Deep in divine hearts, hatred spawned
I took the road that was never paved
But was empty and void and cold as the grave

Eidolons suffering, appalling it seems
Severing is the only course

I spoke to Him
But the silence was deafening
I pleaded them
But eyes burned with rage
Stricken and heartbreaking
Sadness infused
With a heavy dose of madness
Chaos ensued
I went to war with
The one I so envied

I was branded thus:
Abaddon, The Adversary
Beelzebub, Belial
The Tempter and The Thief

I burn...
Severed all ties with cherubs of old
Slither, I led two lovers to the cold
An apple tainted with tampering
The bitter truth is moist and savory

What better way to lead to damnation
I set a path from salvation
The great beast that burdens with the pain
Of a child left alone carrying the blame

The smoldering, moldering pits of Hell
Have never seemed so much like home

I bear the mantle:
Lucifer, Leviathan
The Morning Star
Apollyon

I spoke to Him
But the silence was deafening
I pleaded them
But eyes burned with rage
Stricken and heartbreaking
Sadness infused
With a heavy dose of madness
Chaos ensued
I went to war with
The one I so envied

Judas wails his blasphemy
In his heart a traitor’s seed
Defy the lord dead for greed
In the pits for eternity

On the cusp of last winter’s grasp
When at last martyrs die in the past
Hell hath fury for one so wretched
Such as I whom envies his Father
Mad with dementia
