BELIAL---WORTHLESS

The dark corridor,
Stretching long before me,
A dim veil of unearthly light shows me the way…….
Where am I?
Ah yes…..I remember,
The door to the afterlife………..I have died.
Bliss creeps over me; I am free
from those times of insane killing and my sword, stained with crimson life.
I see a door before me; tall and looming
carved out of bones, and embroidered with hides of the dead.
a scream reverberates from behind the door, a scream of despair.
It opens….
Is it true? What do I see?
It is her…
The consort of the devil
The mistress of the damned…….my mistress
Belial---worthless
She sits on a pile of bones….remains of her slaves
Decked in a blood red robe……..marks on her face
Marks of her own fingernails
Slashed in agony
She fell into hell, burned,
Her screams forever unheard
and yet, why?
because, though a devil at heart, she loved the dark fallen angel
how is it that i understand her?
I hear her thoughts, " I was a retarded creature at creation, so retarded that i was beautiful
and I drove every other angel insane for me. but.....
there was one, the "morning star" they called him before the fall
he despised me ; and so I love him.
until I can win his heart and learn to hate him, I am his slave."
Now she looks at me “come, child”
She speaks “join my army of hatred and despair
Bathe in the blood of animosity
Wield my spear of fire and kill
Kill until you become decayed
Then your bones shall be a throne for me”
I smile……..it continues even after death
I must kill here as I killed in my life
It is my destiny
I bow before her
“Command me, my mistress”
I, too loved the one who despised me.

mythologically, belial is a male demon however belial is a female [ i think] character in angel sanctuary [the manga] and the poem is based on her [i thnk].
