Mourning Star

Mourning Star

A Poem by Mahlo Metsys
"

We all have a personal devil inside of us that we battle with each day.

"
I am the wind, I am the air
I am the life that no longer cares
I am the water, I am the stream
I am the death that awakes in your dreams
Follow the stars to the edge of the world
Follow the hope that will never unfurl
Reject all your light and drown in your tears
Know that you'll never defeat all your fears
I am the sun, I am the moon
I am the light and the darkness and gloom
I am resolve, I am despair
Killing you slowly within my cold lair

Author's Note

Originally wanted to call it "Personal Lucifer" as a play on words with "Personal Jesus", but instead went with a play on words with "Morning Star".
