I treat everyone fair
But they don’t care
About me
Only them
Only their heart
Not mine
Which grows
Darker
Day by day
Searching for another
To replace it
Its black vile
Like an infected
Coat of armour
Covering the red
The pink love
Which is rapidly turning
Black
No light can
Enter
No light ever will
Closed off
Forever.
It’s safer that way.
If no one wants
Heaven
Then they must
Be faced with Hell
Met not with
Fire
But with darkness
A Hellhole
Of Silence
A chasm of
Emptiness
A forgotten city
Evacuated because
It was
Destroyed
Lead us not into temptation
But deliver us from evil
The evil
That was never there
The temptation
That was explored
By others
While the innocent
Are punished
Are isolated
Not even with themselves
As the tempted have taken that too
Emptiness
Is the only thing
That can fill the chasm
And it fills it greatly
Blocking everything else
That could bring
Light
Like an armed guard
Sword unsheathed
Ready to swing.
A false sense of
Security
Guarded by Hate
Not love
Not trust
