outside in the rain

the wind whispers in my ear
as your words are slowly re-played
when winter came you turned austere
as you finally completely slipped away.

i wonder while im walking
what is going on with You
are you happy or sad with what i've done?
i only wish i knew.

the leaves blow along the street
and all sounds are distant to me
with each and every heartbeat
im breaking farther from Your love.

stopping for a moment
to watch the young kid's run
i wish for something that is long absent
the innocence of child's play.

slipping away from sanity
is really all so simple to do
my mind begins to get hazy
and i will myself to some insane one's hands.

stolen from myself
i lost my young heart too soon
now i know it will never heal
forever am i doomed to gloom.

the master of evil stole my heart from God
i wish i'd known how to block my soul
cause then i wouldn't be hell-clod
would i now or was i meant for fire??

one mistake i knew i'd make
was falling away from Him
i wish i'd just trusted myself a little more
so my life wouldn't have to be so grim.

sin eats at my soul
and i know ive given in
forever from now on my life's whole
will be serving a beast...the Devil, as much as i tell myself no.
no i really am not like this just saying..its just a poem i thought i'd write...

slipping away from sanity  
is really all so simple to do
my mind begins to get hazy
and i will myself to some insane one's hands.*you already use losing sanity so how about\Crazy ones hand

stolen from myself
i lost my young heart too soon
now i know it will never heal
forever am i doomed to gloom.* here I think I am forever doomed to gloom would work better.

the master of evil stole my heart from God
i wish i'd known how to block my soul
cause then i wouldn't be hell-clod
would i now or was i meant for fire??*loved this whole stanza but the fire part was good but seemed somewhat off

I like this part
         the wind whispers in my ear
    as your words are slowly re-played
    when winter came you turned austere
   as you finally completely slipped away.
I also like the title

thanks bekah, and I don't really serve the devil...=] i just wrote this poem with how i was feeling..i had just finished a book called "the last sin eater" about a person who has to eat other peoples sins so they can go to heaven, and i just decided i would write a poem about how i would feel if that was me...idk, but anyway, thanks!
