The King's Affirmation - Iniko


There was a naked boy with beautiful long black hair, spiked.

He ran away from his mother, Psyche and Lilim as one.

He thought she was going to kill him, but she only wanted to love him.

She loved him so much.

He believed she wasn't meant to be his mother. He didn't understand they were two souls in one body.

She was large and in charge—an Amazonian woman with blue skin. She had one blue eye as the sky and the sea, one brown eye as the land, and long black hair.

Her eyes, her soul, terrified him.

He didn't understand her love.

Her voice was loud and piercing.

She didn't have control over her voice and spoke more than she listened, though she did want to understand him.

She ran after him, stomping her feet, making his ears bleed.

He jumped down a well and committed suicide.

His fear created the nightmare, taking away from the dream.

She insisted it was okay for him to be afraid and it was okay for him to cry.

Everyone wanted him to die.

The souls and the angels wanted to scream, asking Lucifer, 'why?'

Their cries...

They didn't want to understand him.

He believed she was his child, not his mother.

He knew the Earth as his mother: our home.

Lucifer didn't know that she was goddess of the Souls, light and darkness, nor did he accept that suicide is never the answer.

Not a single soul can control destiny.
