The Angel said with a smile,
"I will overthrow God.
I am stronger than he."
He did as he said,
He knew his own strengths.

He fought, a battle in Heaven raged.
It seemed so endless,
but he lost and Hell was made for him.
There he was banished with his followers
Into his land of suffering and pain...

On earth,
A human was walking along the streets.
She looked up to the sky,
And said, "I wonder where my guardian angel is?"
Her sweet eyes seeing the blue as beauty and love.

But she met with an angel,
A wretched being of hatred and fury.
She didn't dare speak to him,
But being her kind self she did,
and they were friends.

"I will free you from this hell,
If you will just come with me..."
The innocent girl followed.
She did not like to live on the earth.
She traveled with him, to his land.

When she saw it was all fiery and dead,
she screamed.
"You tricked me into coming here!"
That was not her idea of Heaven.
"Let me go!"

The angel showed her the history and the past.
She began to see the other side of the
written holy book.
She screamed, now insane,
unwilling to believe in the Devil's stand.

As she prayed, an angel, different from the fiery angel,
Descended and sent her back to earth.
"Go back to hell,
and stop disturbing her with your world."

In defiance, he shouted,
"How can you tell if this is the hell I live in and not heaven?
How can you say that the pain is not the best enjoyment?
Or that darkness is no more beautiful than light?"
These questions struck his own heart, as he sat down and thought.
These were all paradoxes, inevitable paradoxes.

Suddenly, he understood.
He looked up to the sky, from his painful hell,
"Aren't you who created me for the purpose of sin,
more evil than sin itself?
You are righteous at the expense of me."

There was no reply, but a thunder struck in the sky.
The evil never wins, as good never shall die.
The old tale goes, the cruel wheel of fate is the same;
It is no fairy tale for kids and the innocent girl.
Time passed, the devil stood there alone...
And he broke down and cried.

...... ... no offense to christians, but I'd always thought God is evil.
Flames are welcome.
-void.
