Hell Opened Up to Me/ Fallen Angel

Nikhil Vadher

I used to pray to the sky but God never listened,

Dark clouds form over my head but still the sky glistens,

Tried to speak to God but no conversation was put into fruition,

When thy holy father turned his back on me,

The devil opened up hell and split open the ground for me to see, 

I didn't want to know but he haunted me until I started to believe, 

Told me of the great things we could do and what we could achieve,

His demeanour intrigued me and his words convinced, 

I lost my wings when I was cast to the ground,

Now I'm ready for my revenge and Satan is singing the right sound,

I guess this is what I'm destined to be,

My soul sold at the price of a good life, 

But if I go to war I know the devil will make a great sacrifice, 

He is always by my side whispering to show the world no mercy,

"Make them suffer for what they did to you my disciple, even God didn't show me any courtesy."

His RAGE fuelled deeper flames as he embodied this element, 

Becoming a subject of evil that God warned us about in the Old Testament,

I watched in fear of what I have become,

But it was too late I had lost my divinity,

Now I'm a product of EVIL doing the Devil's work...

  • Comment from author about the poem: This poem was inspired by John Milton's: Paradise Lost Poetry book which explores the biblical themes of Heaven and Hell, as well as Adam and Eve's story and how Satan spoiled mankind. It is an open-ended poem that can be interpreted in different ways whether it is directly from the bibles stories or from more personal and real-life experiences. I wrote this in the perspective of a demon and how he came to follow Satan, the ruler of Underworld, who expresses how he was manipulated by Satan to join his side against God who had cast him from the gates of heaven. Hope you Enjoy :)

    Happy Birthday there Nikhil!
    A fine write. Yes, I read that in one Bible story where Jesus casts out demons from a person, they beg Him to send them into a herd of pigs. The author said that hell is so dreadful that even demons don't want to go there.
