Inter Diabolus

You speak to me
In riddles and rhymes
I follow every turn
You lay me down
Between the lines
My body starts to burn

I know your face
I’ve seen your truth
Still I do not flee
You spin a phrase
To steal my youth
And bind what’s left of me

I pray to what
I know is true
For wisdom that will stand
To reveal what
I thought I knew
Like footprints in the sand

The way is long
But love is longer
Hell is deeper than the sea
Your tongue is sharp
But I am stronger
And I will remain free.
