Is Love a Demon or an Angel?

The blood trickles down the blade
Adrenaline runs down
As you dig the grave

"What have I done?"
You know what you did
"How did I get into this?"
You know how you've sinned

Bad things happen to good people
Insanity hunts down the most sane
Opposites attract
So do the same

You don't belong
You knew it from the start
A mistake, and a spare part
A puzzle piece
Without a puzzle to be apart

The demons caught you
You didn't know
Naive in your own capture
Insanity put on this show

"I am free, I have free will."
If you did your heart would be so still
"I don't need you."
I am all that you do
"Just go away!"
Silly child, I am here to stay

No one will want you
You shall not marry
Who would want one broken,
One who's lost their way?

"But they love me."
Only now
"They'll never leave me."
They trick
They deceive

They never stick around
when you slip up
If you were a murderer,
Would they show up?
Would they love your brokenness,
And imperfect ways?

Your awful
Horrific
Bloody ways

Would he love you if he knew?
Would she not flee from the sight of you?
Would he look on you with disgust?
And all your love together turned to dust

There are only a claw's full now, in the world
Of pure souls who's hearts hath not been twirled
And some who even have evil at their gates
But fights each day
For their freedom, it's never late

"Am I pure? Am I free?"
Fight each day, then we shall see
"Is my love true? Will darkness not ensue?"
Follow your heart
Only then we shall see what fate drew

The words spill out
Can be soft like clouds
Or sharp like knives

The blood pours out
A sickly sweet crime
And crimson stains
Remind you of Valentines

Love so simple
Love so strong
Ah, young love
Is just so wrong

Naiveness runs your childish mind
You know nothing
But you might know little in time
Don't make decisions, just right now
Don't plant your seeds
Until you sow

Love is complicated
Love is harsh
Love will bring you to your low
Why want something that will hurt you so?

"Because, dear demon, love can be beautiful."
Ah but, dear human, so can blood
"Love can be gentle and kind."
It can also rip out your very mind
"Love is what defines our very souls."
Your souls are corrupted and as evil as trolls

I've seen love control an confuse the purest heart

I've seen it turn the brightest to dark

I've seen it do such terrible things

And yet you humans, envision love
As an angel with wings
