Eclipse by Sam K.

As the light is stricken from our eyes
           as if a cloth were hung from our eyes
     we bring forth melancholy.
As though a limb were torn from our body
      we surmise that we are solitary.
We stay with this emotion
till the vivid light restores the paradisiacal emotions
as we realize that we can’t live without the sun's almighty brightness.

Untitled by Madison B

The temptation to sin looks so beautiful,
Evil was formed gorgeous,
To draw the weak towards it,
But step back and take a look

Evil causes harm to those we love,
Why lie to someone we care for,
When the truth doesn't hurt as much in the end

We don't think about the results of our decisions,
Why would you cheat?
If you have the most perfect thing in front of you

The easy answer is it is so tempting,
To take the easy way out of things,
Sin looks like a delicious piece of cake,
But what the human eye does not see is the poison that lies inside

With every step we take,
And every move you make,
It is a two way street,
Evil fights good,
The glory goes the one who hurts you

Devil vs God,
We are rooting for the good guy,
But falling into the bad guy's trap
