Loves quest

Final moments pass so quickly,

Death wastes no time in claiming,

Righteous pious life lived,

Guaranteed place in eternal Heaven.

*

Eager entrance through Heavens doors, 

Wonderous view of paradise promised.

Jubilation rings forth from all around,

Search the sea of faces for my love.

*

Time passes not in my quest,

Yet my love I do not find awaiting me.

Shyly approach God's son,

An earnest question upon my lips.

*

Before I ask, I have my answer,

Dark cloud corrupts my mind,

Smiling, he leads me forth to the door,

Love will find a way, he cryptically says.

*

To Hell I am bound, so for to find,

My one love, I thought would await me.

With dire determination, I set forth,

My place in Heaven in peril. 

*

Dreaded daemons, dangerous denizens, 

Deem it necessary to assault me,

With righteous indignation, brush them aside,

I cannot kill them, neither them me.

*

My vision they bombard with sultry images,

Of carnal, base desires of audacious porportions.

Dilegently stride forth through their temple,

Ever downwards, into the seven tiers of Hell.

*

I know what I see is but a seduction,

A perversion beyond mans lustful desires.

Should I partake of these illusions,

Forever in Hell I will reside. 

*

Hell, reverts back to form,

A tortorous pit of eternal suffering,

Illusion dispelled for what new subterfuge?

Demons leer, as pleasure they take from inflicted pain.

*

I know not what could be worse,

Living a life based on time or...

Existing in a realm with no time?

Here and now are eternity.

*

After how long I know not,

I find my lover upon Satan's rack,

Cruelly suffering at his hands,

I freeze...

*

Emotions war within me,

What sin did my love commit,

To deserve this eternal damnation?

We both followed the same teachings!

*

In her eyes, I see nothing but...

Loathing, seething hate and disgust,

If knives they were, I would be skewered,

Raise my hands to cover my face.

*

I look one more time upon this scene,

I take in Satan, all angelic still,

By far still the attractive angel, he once was,

Yet...

*

The portals to the soul is wrong,

Love...recognition...suffering...pain?

Why would I see this in his eyes?

Drawn deeper into his pits, I see...

*

Master of lies, he does deceive,

He is she and she is he.

I seize his hand and pull her close,

A roar escapes his mouth upon the rack.

*

Before me stands the prince of lies,

Resplendent in all his beauty.

In my arms, I cradle my love,

I hold her tight, like I had never held her before.

*

Satan smiles, waves his hand to a door,

Quickly, he ushers us on our way.

I carry my love over the threshold,

Back into Heaven, where I belong.

*

Before me stands the son of God,

Resplendent, all in purest white.

He asks me if I want to know,

The reason she was not there with me?

*

I mull this over for awhile, in two minds, I am.

I shake my head, my mind decided.

Once more he beams at me and tells me anyway.

She saved you on earth, now you returned the favour.
