To Go Below
A scream heard far away
To the laughs of bells
Feathers falling in the day
landing in a dark drenched well
the fallen price that she pays
the fragile life that she held
everything wasted away
blinded in a false spell
A mysterious being
promised her "The Gate"
Granted her pleading
It set up a bait
"Finish the deed
Open the jar
Granted a key
to send you afar"
A lock broke loose
The cover clicked open
A key to her use
A long lost token
The clouds grew gray
The wind blew hard
The key flung away
and broke into shards
Purple light glew
Her wings grew black
The trouble she brewed
She fell through a crack
Fell through the gate
Her wish fulfilled
Her life at stake
Lost her angel wills
Darkness released
Evil spirits aroused
Completed a masterpiece
Leaving a threatening pose
She was an angel
who wanted to wander Earth
not a devil
walking forever on dirt
