A Letter for the Devil

I do not come bringing Holy Water
But to tell You
Your armies cannot keep me
From entering your kingdom, ablaze.

And i do not come to save any souls...
I come to claim YOU.

I bring my dearest demons,
the ones inside my head.
And they are restless.
Their shadows have been dormant
For an awfully long time.

I have come to bring you down.

So, Devil...
I yield you this warning:

I have come to fight.
if you send any to stand in my path,
I will leave none alive.

I've come to claim you, Devil
and I will have your kingdom
drowning in my tears.

Your crown is made
of all the splintered halos
of the angels you dragged down here.

But it is MINE now.

And I will make a throne
Built out of all Your broken bones.
I will unchain MY demons
that are tethered to my hips.
And they will feast upon YOU.

MY darkness
MY shadows
Shall wrought upon Your flesh
As I stand above YOU
while You cower away from ME.

Oh, Devil,
You pathetic little thing.
How could you not have forseen
that the fire in ME
is Hot and Raging enough
to burn even HELL
to the ground?
