Sin
What is sin?
Is it when you raped me over and over again
as I would scream and cry begging you to stop.
Is it when you tied me to the basement floor
asking me if I wanted more.

Raindrops fall down like Teardrops
as this child's fear of the unknown
fills his heart with doom
His life is balanced with only gloom
Never smiles Never talks
Only pain as he walks

We just never know how strong that love will become in our hearts and minds
The love we have grows stronger each day though miles apart

I sat in retrospect,nothing uncusomary
And viewed my expunging light-
Before I went outside in corporal call
In my little solitude.I viewed the cold surroundings
And shied to mt self-bettered stated;

I will lift my eyes to the hills and where help will come,
With nobility sweeping away human misery to the dear end;
Like the sheen drops of torrential rain embracing a thirsty rose
And buds withering blossoming revealing beauty unrivaled.

Selfless like a cordial Moon in bright;

It's enough tonight 
Pretense isn't helping me
I must let you know 
The echo you're hearing from afar 
Isn't sound of rumbling ocean
Isn't sound of falling rain 
It's sound of my breaking heart

Sadness is a muse,

You may use that as an excuse.

 

You say that’s how you get inspired,

Don’t let it consume you before you expire.
