Painting Clouds

Life-
Then Life as Hell-
What can I gain from losing myself?
A Painted Soul-
Menagerie of Lost pain-
Wicked, Biting Beasts-
Opposition-
Dark, Dismal, Despondent-
Versus the skyward-
Clouds of a Black sky-
A cosmic opening of calm-
An icy burning Hell,
Eternal flame in disguise-
Tell-tale picture of a crossways.

Flickering-
Sputtering light-
Trying to choke it out-
But-
My soul so weak,
Barely breathing-
The throws of Death-
Wax melting-
Silent, Waiting-
Now- Burning brightly-
Converging, Consuming-
Pearlite refraction-
My soul to despise-
A decision to be made-

The loneliness is Black-
Extreme in its intent!
Unending screams of regret-
Blackness is the Fallen, Broken-
The chain that keeps us bound-
Hold me up and sanctify!
Hold me up to the light!

Bow to my Darkness-
Willing you to partake-
My Darkness is alive!
Seemingly dead-
It writhes in its pit-
A deceiving Judas Iscariot-
Beckoning you to it, to me-
To combine-
The best of Heaven,
The worst of Hell.

Shining Seraphim-
Push up my hazy Veil-
Your light is exhilarating!
Seemingly oppressing-
It creates a balanced scale-
An innocence like Cherubim-
Trials and Tribulations-
Of me- Of getting me-
To surrender-
The loneliness, emptiness-
For the fulfillment.

I-
I am the dogma of the Church-
Sins and Threats of concealed Damnation-
You-
You have saved- Me-
Saint-

Overtaking me-
Failing you-
The Clash of Lying Titans-
Our places defined-
A sunburst’s blow-
Darkness bows to you-
Liquid Evil- Chained, Caged-
Seeping into the chasm of you-
Binding you to me, me to you-
Knitting sinewy forms-
Make believe-
Toying turns to Entwining-
You are like me, one with me-
In the Darkness you are completed-
In the Light I am Redeemed!

Conscious Insanity-
Sleeping and awaking-
They- We-
As one together-

The world is Black-
Undefined in a mask of shadows-
Make believe-
Real light- Purely a figment of my reality-
Let us blend our sweet melody!
A chant of the Night Angels-
“Be not afraid of Black Shadows,
Light is the Reason they exist!”
