Burn Baby Burn

See the frightened and lonely girl sitting in the corner?
Do you see her?
She's got long dark hair hiding half of her face
Only one of her almond shaped eyes is visible
She is curled up in the fetal position,
scared and alone
She knows not which way to turn
On her own for the first time in years
That's when The Demon swoops in without warning
He takes her hands and chains her wrists
to his wings of darkness
It happens so quickly that there is no time for protest
She knows nothing of his intentions
But the girl would have gone willingly
no matter the circumstances

She holds on tight to him throughout their journey
From the deepest gorges of Hell
Those nights she though would never end
To every splendor of the Heavens
The nights she wished had no ending
He shows her the face of Satan
And he shows her the face of God
He poisons her and she swallows every drop

Yet her eyes have been opened
He taps into every part of her soul
That she kept hidden for so long
The wounds are split open
He pours in the salt with a manical laugh
It brings pain yet ecstacy
For this she grows to love him
And to hate him

Even as he grips the knife that slices through
The knots that bind her to him
He will not set her free
He knows the little girl in the corner
Does not exist anymore
He knows that he's created a monster
A Goddess that will leave a trail of tears,
Blood and destruction in her wake

On the night she bears his son, his legacy,
She cuts out his heart with her sharpened stiletto
And throws it at his feet
She lights the flame that is to burn
Him at the stake
She watches as he writhes and squirms
While the flames are licking up toward his loins
Yet not a sound escapes his lips
Because he KNOWS
He knows it is all in exchange
For binding her heart in leather straps
For tweaking her mind with cold steel clamps
For keeping her coming back for more

See the fire in her eyes?
It's the reflection of his wings
As they are torched
It is the reflection of skin on skin
Fingernails to flesh and pleasure from the pain
The night she forces him to succumb to the flames
Is the night she herself succumbs to death.
