Black and white


At a young age I was told

Demon's have black horns

And Angel's have white wings

 

I was taught that

Demon's will trick me into love

Then their black horns would imprison me

 

I was taught that

Angels would teach me to love them

Then their white wings would encircle me in love

 

At an older age I found out

Demon's can have white horns

And Angel's can have black wings

 

I learned that

Demon's will let me love them

Then their white horns will secure me

 

I learned that

Angel's would make me love them

Then Their black wings would encircle me in hate
