Beauty And The Beast

As the creature walks by the vile
horror called his reflection 
Knowing the beast that stirs deep
wishing his dark soul
Holding pain and suffering that
lingers filling the midnight air
Makes the beast wonder who he
is and why faith judged him 

Unable to take the pain and shame
that dwells deep within his heart
Makes the beast retreat to the one
thing that spares his soul
She calms the monster with the
love she holds for him
If it was not for her he would
have shedded his blood long ago 

He was cursed long ago
by the demon of the night
To walk the darkness alone
with despair deep in his soul
The only way to break the chains
that bounded the beast within
Is the find the one true love 
lighting the flame deep in his heart
