Hell Rises

Something from a school project my senior year of high school back in '07.

We shall not cease from being
And the end of all our humanity
Will be to arrive where we eternally suffer
And know the place for the first time.
Through the unknown, unremembered existence
When the last of mortal life left to discover
Is that which was the beginning;
At the source of the longest river
The voice of the hidden temptation
And the serpent in the apple tree
Not known, because not looked for
But heard, half-heard, in the stillness
Between two shades of the darkness.
Quick now, here, now, always �"
A condition of complete chaos
(Costing not less than everything)
And all shall be well and
All manner of thing shall be well
When the buds of the flame are burning
Into the hellish night of fire
And the fire and the rose are as one…

So I'm pretty sure if someone chanted this in latin it would be spooky as hell. I of course love spooky and dark so I loved this piece. It will probably take me a few reads to fully understand it...and that is good. I realy liked the line "two shades of darkness" and "costing not less than everything." Fitting for a girl named Lilith, which I'm sure you know was Adam's first wife and ultimately became/or was the serpent in Eden.
