Monster in the mirror

Mirror Mirror on the wall/
Show me the monster to embrace my fall/
Claws and fangs a beast does make/
Ruthlessness and malice a soul does take/
Scary words we don’t want to hear/
But words nonetheless we should fear/
Lesson number 1 monster maketh man/
Clawing from within marking you with its Brand/
The man will be battered in the light/
It’s the monster who conquers it with its might/
With opposition crushed the man can grin/
Because his inner monster was coated in sin/
Mirror Mirror on the wall/
Show me the monster who helps me stand tall/

Light and dark are two sides of the same coin. Embrace both to live a complete life.

Happy Halloween

image

The air was crisp and cool
The climate of the fool
Light diminishes rapidly
Kids chatter vapidly
Innocent souls wonder The streets
Tricking the treats to earn sweets
All exclaiming happy Halloween
None the wiser to the macabre fiend
Wander off into the night
Stray farther away from the light
Welcome the embrace of the night
Lose you soul to its might
Turn about and find that you are lost
Feel the tendrils of darkness like burning frost
Cry out for help in your fear
Let me the first to tell you, no one is near
“please please let me live”
Your soul is the only thing you have to give
Too scared to offer, it will be stolen
Ripped from your flesh with claws so swollen
Swollen with lust for your soul
Try to deny it and heads will roll
You sought candy and a good time
Now you lay lifeless covered in dirt and grime
Bleed out slow, a victory for the fiend
Looks like yet again it’s a Happy Halloween
