The Demonic Angel Within


His cherubic face, his radiant smile
Masked those desires, fiendish and vile.
A deceitful persona, a mind so sly
Two-faced yet cautious, he was living a lie.

He attempted to immerse himself
Into a sea of normalcy.
Secretly he wished to be a common soul,
Accepted, mundane and ordinary.

But he was beyond the realm of control,
His malignant self found its way through.
His eyes declared aversion and contempt.
Into a vicious monster, he grew.

The world was blinded by the obvious.
For they couldn’t look any further
Than his conspicuous portrayal
Of a soul with raging fervor.

The world was oblivious to the reasons
That may have driven him to transform.
His once selfless spirit,
Was now camouflaged by a spiteful norm.

The world was his mirror,
For it reflected his inner goons.
The world was also his blind spot,
For it failed to see his emotional wounds.

What the world couldn’t notice
Was a struggling angel beneath.
Those devilish horns concealed a halo,
And forever he hid under a false sheath.
