The Devil Himself Poem by Luna Moon

My shadwo is swallowing me,
Stretching over my head and coating my eyes.
Sweat and mud clogging my throat and
Cathing the breath in my lungs.
Consuming all life in me,
So my shadow shall thrive,
Thrive inside the darkness of my heart.
My heart,
My heart,
Once so vibrant when I was so innocently in love,
Falling ever so hard for those eyes,
Still peering into my soul-
Until I was blinded
And shroud in my own shadow.
Sequestered in the black that crept into my eyes.
My shadow's still eating me,
Moist and dank,
All powerful and controlling.
The only lights I remember are your eyes
Still peering right on through me.
