I've seen the world through the Devil's eyes
I've lived in every shade of black
Yet as the nigh falls the world goes red
Drowning in it's own blood
Only to awake to the never-ending nightmare known as life

Who am I to criticize?
Yet, who are you to say I'm wrong?

This piece was a little ambiguous at the end, but I loved it!!! Out of all the authors I've seen on this website, I like your work the most.
