Your Poetry Dot Com - My Greatest Sin.

never was i so innocent.

destroying every heart i’d come in contact with.

my heart so warm and welcoming, but yet so cold.

always leaving my mark with a story to be told.

then i met you.

i loved you and wanted to stay with you

and yet my habits remained the same.

my appalling acts drove me insane.

hacking and slashing and tearing at every vein.

i needed my queen to help me reign;

this world that i call love, getting us higher than the birds above.

but the world that i long for, the world that we once had

is broken…

bad.

rivers and streams with water once so blue

calmed my thoughts and reminded me of you…

you…

him.

the image of you two.

now my rivers, streams over flow with fire and flames

volcanoes no longer spewing ash

but burning ice while acid rains.

up from a freezing hell burning my flesh.

i cry out in pain.

cascades rushing upwards in reverse.

our beautiful and blessed world…

cursed.

but then i see her.

she soothes me, she calms me.

because of her my world is slowly coming together again.

forgotten but loved until the very end, you. my baby, my love, my greatest sin.
