Redemption

You are the Serpent Of Eden.
You gave birth to Despair
Fostered Fear
And nourished Confusion

The lies you spew are sweet on the tongue
But constrict the throat
The hand you offer looks like ivory from afar
But is constructed of barbs and thorns

You are the Bearer Of Death
You've trampled Dreams
Injected venom into my Wants
And maimed my Desires

The Endings you bring are flung around, carelessly
Paved with your own Selfishness
Lined with your own Self-Centeredness
Painted with the blood of your Offspring

You opened the Box of Pandora
Laughed as your Sanity fled
Waved goodbye to your Morals
Chased away your own Benevolence

However, you couldn't crush Hope
Your wailing couldn't stop It
Your clawing couldn't weaken It
Your anger couldn't scare it

I grant you no more
No Pity
No Power over me
No Love

You are Swine
You have no power here
I cast you out, Legion
Today, I follow Hope
