heaven and hell.

heaven and hell.

A Story by avaya

Heaven and hell do exist on earth. They exist in our spirits and in our minds.. We all tend to a demon inside of us, dedicating our lives to satiating their every need, and if we allow our demons the power to control us, we will be sucked into a hell-- of our own demon’s torment. But if hell can exist inside of us, so may heaven. 


So may an angel. An angel who is shackled by the demon, enslaved to its every desire, allowing itself to be taken advantage of…simply because it does not believe that it’s good enough to escape. It does not believe it's good enough to be good. So, the angel loses a feather for each tear, for each scar, for each whimper for death. The angel slowly loses the stones for a path towards heaven. Many of us exist with a shackled angel, begging to escape. We try to silence them with our empty actions, meaningless efforts to cope with the pains of our demons. But too little too late, they’ve gotten a hold of us now. Stripped down, laid out for evil. In a world where heaven’s much too far and hell is right next door, the path to freedom is hidden behind a path too cruel, tricks up on every turn, and a naive child falling for them all. Enslaved are we all to the tricks of the world. The illusion behind the euphoria.
