The Dark Angel

(Translation of “Ангел Тьмы”)

I hear a voice, angelic voice that talks on love.
The Angel’s speech is sweet, I still can’t get enough.
At times, a dark angel comes by my lovely spot;
He tries to get me into something really dark.

The sly seducer – smart, almost second to none,
He aims to find a way to lead me astray from Light.
The strength inside me is enough not to succumb.
He’s nothing left; he leaves me, losing another fight.   

Dark Angel is eager to suck the joy out of me.
He says: “Be arrogant, say spiteful words, go kill!”
But the demon is taken aback by what I choose to be.
Time and again I choose this Love, rather than fear.

Author’s comments:

The Dark Angel is rather a metaphor, than a creature, though the opposite is not ruled out. The Dark Angel is the lower self that exists in each one of us as well as the Higher Self. When people practice positive thinking and living in Love, manifestation of the lower self is reduced to zero.
