Satanic Lullaby


Even the most terrifying nightmare ends in sleep
Live, love, and dream in the now
Not in a fairy tale spiritual realm
Make your wildest fantasies become real
For this too shall end
Badly one day
The rich man dies poor as the poor man dies richer
Fire and flames consume 
The ramshackle hovel and majestic palace alike
Money is just a fool's paper chase
Becoming someone's donkey for the grass at your feet
True wealth lies in the heart and soul
Within your mind
Breath deep before the breeze goes
Dry the child's tears
They are your own
Cultivate smiles when you can
Make love like there is no tomorrow
Stare into her eyes and see eternity in her gaze
Because soon she will live forever in jaded memories
Visions of ecstasy that will never die
As you lay alone in bed
Dance even when the music stops  
Befriend the friendless and give a voice to the mute
One day you too will know solitude and despair
Forgive the worst blows
Only then are you truly healed
But never forget betrayals
Remember all who do a favor and those who attempt to lead you astray
Do not repeat the same mistakes with the same people
Celebrate when it is time to be happy
Mourn when it is necessary, but not to excess
Live life to the fullest each day 
For this instant may be your last moment alive
Do not obsess on regrets
But fulfill your potential
All the possibilities that remain
Now sleep my child
For Heaven and Hell 
Await 
With morning light
As you choose 
With Free Will
So you will create
Your Destiny.
