Shorter than usual--the emotion bothers me. [bodytext] => Blessed are the eyes that can see throught the lies
Cursed is the poor soul within
Worn is the mind that shan't dare look behind
Fresh is humanity's sin

His mind moved beyond him
His age beyond years
His eyes far beyond grim
His pain beyond tears

How do you weep for the nature of man?
Whence comes the woes for the life of the dammed?
When everything's secrets and crime is abound
The last thing one wants is to see through the sounds

I weep naught for loved ones, there's no woe for dead
The coffin's not lifeless--I am , instead
The last tears I've shed are all tears for myself
How do you win when the worst hand's been dealt?

I loathe my existence
I hate that I see
I still cry for no one
Please, what's wrong with me? [comments] => 3 [counter] => 154 [topic] => 13 [informant] => eternityslyre [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )

The Sinner's last wish

Damn...great expression of how you feel. The flow here is above reproach, the rhymes are smooth, and your word choice is, as usual, perfect. Very well done, my friend.

Truly,
-V.S.

WOW.

Hate to be unoriginal, but WOW. I am absolutely blown away. You've outdone yourself here.

The flow and the way the rhymes unfolded were faultless. The words themselves were well chosen and poignant. A few of the rhymes weren't as fully rhymed as they could've been, which detracts a little, but on the whole this was quite good.

Nice job.
