The Fall

In the great book is written, A tale that should be told
Of an Angel smitten by a love so uncontrolled
That it had the potential to destroy the realms of mankind
In a war so monumental to heaven and hell combined
Samuel was an Archangel, a leader of heavenly host
Which made his fall more shameful as an Angel trusted the most
So when in the course of his duty he met a demon Eisheth
He was stunned by her great beauty and couldn’t put her to death
She also was totally enamoured, declaring her love was true
She handed Samuel her demon sword and her heart and her body too
For a century they were lovers before they were both revealed
As an example to others, were Into purgatory sealed.


Eisheth had born a child now well hidden in the world of men
The form of an Angel, demon blood running wild, known as a Nephalem
To both Demons and Angels an abomination as it carried the powers of both
Together they hunted through the population hoping to stop the powers growth
Cassandra was her name, the “One who shines over men”
Her one wish was to ensure her parents were able to return again
The rulers of Angels and Demons fearful of the powers she could wield
Searched through mankind’s regions looking for where she’s concealed
Many years passed in succession until Cass knew her powers were strong
To the Gods there would be no concession, they had showed her nothing but wrong

On that final day for the first time she finally showed her wings
Spreading them to show her prime, while around her nature sings
She sent her call to the heavenly hordes ordered them to her side
Breaking through the archangels wards, her call not to be denied
And the legions answered her call unable to deny her need
One by one within her thrall her orders they did heed
Then she called out once more to the Devils domain
And from the depths of Hells deep core the Demons crawled and came
Lucifer stood before her then kneeled to show tribute
And all his demons did defer and all followed suit
She offered him her hand and sat him one step below
To show all she did command and all around would know.

Once more she sent another call that was powerful and insistent
The Archangels appeared before them all unable to stay resistant
Michael stood before them too furious in his shame
He said “you think you can summon God too? You don’t even know his name”
“No”, Cass said, “don’t you see? I am one of his Children too,
It’s in his name that I stand here, It’s his power that I used on you.
You think you do what is best, when you wanted my childish blood?
An innocent child you would divest of her life? Oh but that you would!
Great wrong has been done in his name, a price must now be paid
You and Lucifer must share the blame, in his eyes you have strayed”
With a wave of her hand they were left alone, both Angels and demons sent back
The Archangel gave a moan on finding his soul was black.

Cass turned to the Devil and enquired, “First fallen, Have you nothing to say?”
He smiled, “This position was never desired, It seemed just to happen this way”
The Archangel “it seems all madness has consumed angelic and demonic hosts”
He leaned back consumed by sadness, “We are both undeserving our posts”
And so an ending was contemplated, endings are beginnings as well
Two enemy’s were obligated to merge both Heaven and Hell
Cass and her parents got together and helped as all was restyled
Maybe some day, maybe never, something omnipotent looked back….and smiled.
