The Devil's Redemption

Strong. Fierce. Unshakeable.

Three things I've always strived to be.
But life is unexpected. It's confusing. It's cruel.
All it takes is one blink, one blip in time, and your life is changed irrevocably.
I knew he would come for me. What I didn't anticipate was how much I would need him.
He locked me up and told me I was his forever.

Until I wasn't. 

In the darkest moments since then, he was the light that kept me going.
The life I thought I didn't want, I now prayed that I'd return to.

Taking me was the easy part.
Breaking me tested my strength.
Surviving both could be my ruin.
