I
do you recall the days i used to look the devil straight in his dark, ferocious eyes and smilelike he hadn't turned my world into an immortal pandemonium of dread and gloom?
it was a look of perfect brilliance, you see. so honest, so pure, so full of oblivion. its power could have ignited the foundations of heaven; dissolved the gates of purgatory; eradicated the pits of hell if it so wished.
[and yet, that smile would end up being nothing but the tragic aftermath of fierce manipulation and fraudulent promises.]

how couldn't you possibly have known?
you must've seen the transparent admiration in my cerulean eyes every time i looked at you? you recall watching me fall hopelessly in love with your misleading charisma and sardonic lies as i glorified you like you were god himself, don't you? perhaps you never c̶a̶r̶e̶d̶ noticed how i loved you so irrevocably, my dear.
nonetheless, i bet you treasured the moment—

i didn't realize my life had become so sacrilegious until the darkness ultimately buried me whole, you know.
i wasn't flinching as it obscured even the most restricted parts of my pierced heart. i hadn't interfered when it swallowed me up and held me captive in the corners of my own mind. i only realized the severity of my reality once the abyss spat me back out into the word of light and reason without my consent. i wouldn't give into the prayers of the angels as they tried to guide me back home to paradise, and i couldn't exorcise the demon within me until it was too late for penance—
—because i was too lost in mypathetic delusions to notice.
