It's so bright it hurts my eyes.
The angel on my shoulder,
Floating higher and higher.
The devil's misdeeds and his hellfire,
Await my turn,
To burn brighter and brighter.
Light ferries its angels,
To the other side.
The darkness inside me,
Can burn so bright.
Opposition inside me,
My stomach in knots.
The cost to be free,
And the devil's taunts,
Make for one sleepless night's haunts.
These "Would You Rathers" are small, but they're meant to start debates. Debates, not arguments! Anyways, here's the first one: "In a mystery novel, would you rather have a friend by your side helping you while risking his/her own life... ...or would you rather have your friend safe at home counting on you to solve the mystery and come out safely?"
Wow. I'm blown away on how you portray conflict. It's so relatable but also poetic. Don't even get me started on the staying awake for hours bit. I love the rythym. I love the style. I love the rhymes. I love the story. Please keep writing!
