Satanic Masquerade

Worshipping Satan in secret,

conjuring these visions of grandeur,

giving in to the rage

being someone I am not just for sport

 

Doing it just for the thrill,

seeking out these unreal moments,

which never seem quite fulfilling enough,

always wanting more

 

To go deeper and deeper,

harder and harder,

faster and faster,

darker and darker

 

Until there is nothing new to discover

and all I have done, as a result is to have chased a shadow;

an ideal, which I can never quite be

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Kind of like Tom Cruise's character from Eye's Wide Shut. He wants to go to the party and wear the mask but he doesn't want to join. Devils advocate. Sympathy for the Devil. Vicarious experience.
