There is a cave
Beyond the void
Beneath the abyss
On the other side
Of eternity
Off the edge
That God does not even tread
There, bundled inside
A wooden chest,
There is an old thing
A dead thing
An evil thing
Waiting
Waiting for his maid Pandora
The thing is Sin
And Sin is calling
Calling from a cave
From beyond the void
Beneath the abyss
On the other side
Of eternity
Off the edge
That God does not even tread
Inside a wooden chest
Made from the last tree
Of the ruined Earth

Oooh. I really like this. There's not much to nitpick here. It's just good. I love the imagery and the flow. *clicks 'like'* I really like the refence to Pandora and her box. I couldn't help smiling while I read this.

Anyway. Thanks for making me smile and the beautiful poem.

I agree with ScarlettFire on this. It's elegant, and simple. The rhythm is very smooth, and the imagery is straightforward yet symbolic at the same time. Really good!

I always knew that deep down in every human heart, there is mercy and generosity. No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite.
