There is the devil
Inside all of us.
Or so do they say.
He makes us do
All the wretched acts.
He makes us lie
And play deception.
He makes us enjoy
Our sins and fouls.
The Prince of Lies:
Behind all the atrocities.
The 'Shaitan'(Satan) is behind
All the wicked intentions,
All the murders,
All the rapes,
All the foulest of crimes.
The Azazel makes people
Desire the iniquitous acts.
The heinous felonies
Are the manipulations of Iblīs;
They say. They say
Lucifer is evil incarnate,
Personification of all
Intentions crooked & wicked.
Humanity has made
Lucifer a scapegoat;
Blamed him & cursed him,
In the name of humanity's
Crimes, felonies, misdoings.
For how long could
They keep saying that?
For how long could
We keep accepting that?
For how long could
We turn a blind eye
On our darkness?
On our inner sinfulness?
The Satan never made
Any of us do the acts,
Commit the crimes,
Enjoy them.
He reflects those on us.
Our hell is our own.
One which we dread,
'Cause our conscience
Could never forgive us.
The Devil is just a means
To our heinous ends.
He never tortures.
He could never torture!
After all, he himself,
is a Fallen Angel.
