"The Black Deceiver"

"The Black Deceiver"

A Poem by Sarah Ahmed

The devil had to deceive Adam and Eve
And make us be tested on earth till we leave
But we can all grieve for what we perceive
And why we conceive and give birth to achieve

It goes back to the start when it all had began
He refused to bow down to God's first man
Now what's his plan? To return again?
And ban that he can of the pious clan?

He'll murder the road down heaven's abode
He'll take what is owed with no mercy bestowed
Upon his true name and he'll die in his shame
For men are to blame in a blazing flame

Like a wretched child, his hate runs wild
His ways are designed to be wickedly styled
A mass tribulation for one commendation
He'll kill his prostration and sell his salvation

His worthiness lies to be above clay
Fire over dirt will rule any day
But look at you now, boasting in fire
You'll burn in yourself with among every liar

They rank you much higher and let you inspire
It's you they desire and you they acquire
It's you they admire and you they inquire
When falling in hell, is it you they'll require?

The trials you bring and you're crowned then a king?
Damned are the ones who will clench you and cling
To your life of raising humility's wing
When God gave you power to have everything

Can you ever hate me as much as I hate you?
When the good in my heart is from what you will do
The hell with it satan, I guess I'll stay true
Just to spite you and your dead army too

(You're always surrounded by the black deceiver, he'll try to cease every last faithful believer.....but not me.)

I was a bit confused in this one...but that's mostly due to my stupidity sometimes :D Hahaha, pretty good poem! From what I could tell you were speaking out against worldliness and satan and his temptations! I myself am a believer in Christ, and I love that last line in the parentheses ;)
