Devour (Demons of the Night II)

After watching the movie Devour by Jensen Ackeles of Supernatural, one of my favorite series, I felt so overwhelmed by the last sentence in the movie which was " The Devil couldn't kill her child so this is how she makes me pay for wanting to be human. But maybe they're right, maybe there is no Pathway and this is all a fantasy I've created to live with the horrible things I've done. Wake me from this nightmare, please, help me". 
Have been through it all before, I can say that the mind has this incredible ability in believing in what you want it to believe in; like everything suddenly sounds idiomatic and sensible and in a split of a second it makes no common sense at all. 
"The brain is just like a muscle, the more you train it the more it can give" Bill Forbes, The Vampire Diaries, Season Three, Can't actually remember the episode. 
So after feeling like "OMG this can happen 'cause it's so common to convince ourselves with stuff and then create the illusion and live in it", I felt like I had to make something out of it, and That's what I had written down. 

P.S. the reason for the Bible Quoting is that it clarifies many points and the movie is built upon some Biblical references so it's just a contribution to the effects I want to add.


"1 Peter 5:8 Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour."

Seductive and beautiful
Graceful as if playing on chords
As charming and bewitching
As a mermaid can be
Exotic she is.

She knows how to strike
Where to strike, when to strike;
She knows everything.
She seems like divine;
Wild yet peaceful,
You need to dig deep down
To reach her core, in case it exists.

Once your eyes are set on her
You're confessed never to let go;
She gets her clutches in you
She is possessive, you belong to her
"Like a lion, she prowls around,
Seeking souls she may devour."
That's how she is, who she is
Sneaking at night in your darkest dreams
Capable of doing what she wants
And of making you do what she wants
And for being capable of doing everything
Of being everything, she is everything.

She is your dreams,
She is your nightmares
She is that soulless monster
That craves to be let out
That killer, abductor, she is the demon inside
That one that grows beneath your smile.

The rituals has to be done
Before she can expose herself to you
She is in your life, intimate to you
Yet the real face of hers,
About which you have no clue.
You have to kill to know the truth
So that her true face would prevail
And for the mask to fall
She is what your mind tells you to be
And what you resist to do, thus become.

She is those visions that you get
Your destructive wishes
Your abilities that you wouldn't let out
Your suppressed fantasies in your head
She is the other side of the self
She is your enemy, even though she is you
When you look at the mirror
You see her sometimes
More than those in which you see you
She is Satan that grows in each of us
The one for which we fantasize to release
Because without creating our illusions
We would gradually be devoured
By our sense of guilt
She is the anesthetic to our cruel nature.


"Acts 13:10 “You are a child of the devil and an enemy of everything that is right! You are full of all kinds of deceit and trickery. Will you never stop perverting the right ways of the Lord? "

"James 4:7 Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you."

Everybody's Fool

After the devastating events of the football match between El-Masry and El-Ahly teams, I grew angry as a result of the responds and the way our "saviors" and our "protectors" reacted. When everyone else but our rulers feel sad and devastated to what happened to our youth, I can for sure guarantee that there is something going wrong. It's a conspiracy maybe, but against who?! Is it against ourselves or against our country?! Is it in favor of the anonymous "third party" who maintain his ability in staying  anonymous for more over a year now just to make our existence no more than a mere shadow in the reality he wants to create?! I don't know and quite frankly no one gives a God damn shit to answer. I wrote this because I couldn't help feeling regret for voting to who now seem to be unfit to rule us. I'm sorry to have wasted my vote on you people. You deserve nothing but the disgrace you are sinking deeper and deeper in.

 
In a faraway land, exists a town
Where it is said to be the town of emperors
Where peace is found and welfare is easily gained
Where great rulers rise and legacies are made

After an endless age of great empires; one rising after the other
Came the age of plague; an age when everyone has to suffer
The descendants of Amun and the worshipers of great Ra'
All is going to his doom; the town is set on fire

As everything is burning, as great history goes to waste
A faint voice came up, through the smoky haze
The voice now multiplies and the sound is growing stronger
All is calling for regaining our stolen prosperity

After an age of massive deaths and slaughter
After a war between the existence of the self and that of the nation
The young people win as the tyrant crumbles into his delusions of grandeur
Or so we thought; for we got landed by his filthy replacements

At first, as a child who gets fooled by a new toy,
We thought we won, oh yes, in that we believed
Also in this dream of ending the age of the plague;
It was everyone's hope, everyone's unspoken scream.

As the tide rises, as the waves shift directions
As people wash their disgrace while others sink deep in it
They said it's the time to found a new town
On lawful degrees it's established, it's time for a new history to be written

And as the blood is still spilt on the ground,
Came those who pledged to erase the memories
With false claims and promises they clouded our minds
And for us being trustful, in them we trusted.

With our will we voted, we said it's time for a change
They fooled themselves, they believed they're salvation
And in their believes we believed,
I guess we were struggling in what to believe
But salvation faded away in the establishment of a new age of plague

Time passed, not so long, yet not so short.
The same old same;
Blood is spilt, but now for the most trivial reasons
Killing is now easy, and emotions now are growing cold


People now die in massacres, and we thought we won at first
Some of us have grown unhopeful, that's how the pharaohs ruled
But now we're in the wait for the new scream, for the voice to bloom
For once it screams out calling for change, it will be for real

One part wise, three parts fool; but in bullshit we will believe no more
Somehow they got everybody fooled; but now they are everybody's fool

"Without the mask where will you hide?
Can't find yourself, lost in your lie
I know the truth now
I know who you are
And I don't (trust) you anymore
It never was and never will be
You don't know how you've betrayed me
And somehow you've got everybody fooled"
