You're not the benevolent
spirit of gentleness
virtue
and redemption
that you tricked me
into believing you are
You wore the face of an angel
promising to be a savior
walked with me
through my darkest times
while preying on my inner wickedness
drawing it out like a parasite
You didn't cast out the darkness
you sunk your teeth into it
burrowed your way inside of it
you helped it fester and grow
fed on it
when my eyes were closed to your true nature
You brought the devil out of me
demons I was afraid to become
you're an apparition
a servant of evil
a whirlwind of destruction
a succubus for devastation
It pains me to do so
but I must banish you
back to the realm of shadows
from which you came
and I'll pray mournfully
for your salvation
