Lucifer's Magic

Inspired by the song "Sleeping In The Fire" by WASP

  

 

It’s a sensation like no other

Like a spell of bliss was cast upon you.

The sweet potion stimulates the heartbeat

As you fly so free across the moonlight.

Bitter memories are cast out

And sentenced to be burned at the stake.

As the flame of passion ignites

A seamlessly eternal candle

That no wind or rain could ever put out

An eerie feeling begins to pierce

The deepest part of the senses

And all to late your fate is sealed

When the love potion that consumes

The chambers of your heart

Is infected with Lucifer’s magic

Blackening your soul

Until you want it no more.

So you sell it all too cheap

To the man with the horns.

Dale, hello, I missed you. This was a dark beauty. I especially loved the last 6 lines. This was a perfect description of having a conflict with the conscience and the heart. I thought, I heard you reading in Jenny's /Robert's show. That was also very enjoyable. Unfortunately I don't understand people, when they are too fast but I understood your reading. Very nice moment it was, I listened a while ago till the end. Hope you are smiling. Dropp me a line. LGandr�

A well structured poem, with just the right pace.

I loved the line� "That no wind or rain could ever put out."

And the last two lines really pull all the meaning of the poem together

Wonderful write
