Two sides
After years-long fight,
My dark side is coming to light,
The devil took me down,
Ever since I started to follow him around,
It's not my fault
The way to hell is ornamented,
And maybe I'm deluded,
I shouldn't play with fire,
So why does it feel so good,
Seeing the flames go higher?
I don't understand,
This abhorrent form of self-hate,
That strips me from my human form,
And ascends to my angelic one,
Only to clip my wings,
And plummet down to my animalistic form,
The furry, with claws and fangs,
But she feels like the very me,
It's my teeth and it's my nails,
It's my skin,
Just worn inside out,
I'm afraid, she's coming out.
