Lucifer's Gift

The candle flickers as death draws near
the whispering souls come out to play as the clock hit's Midnight
and another realm opens
Lucifer returns from his sleep
bringing a gift for his weary lover
a lovers kiss, a serpents kiss a poisoned box of betrayal like the petals of a red rose scattered amongst the ashes of a body that's been lain to rest out in the elements of this battered earth and all remains are the segments of distrust
that were brought upon by this gift of death the very life blown out like the candle that once flickered in the darkness of your soul
the brutality of life and death
Lucifer's gift an unopened box that within Pandora once lay
her lover the Lucifer the fallen she an unopened box of lust,trust, power
fulfillment, arousal virginity stolen by one little kiss
the kiss which became Lucifer's only gift .... Death...
