Standing In Silence...

0 posted 2004-11-16 11:37 AM



You internal light
Becomes wreathed in darkness
As your vision blurs and
You slowly collapse.

You’re on your knees,
Begging for forgiveness.
But Fate has another
Plan for you…

You travel through the world-
Not alive, but not dead.
Cast out from hell,
Not welcome in heaven.

You have no soul
To call your own,
And no love left in you,
To share with anyone.

You live in eternal damnation.
Frightening people with all
Of your disfigurements,
And all of your sins.

Fate laughs in your face,
“You see where your
Sins have brought you?
You shall live forever-
With your guilt,
With your greed,
And with the pain,
That you’ve forced onto others.”

Seems pretty blunt and to the point to me. It was a good poem. I liked it.

You could have gone deeper into the subject of the "sins", and possibly describe this "fate" a little more morbidly if you wanted to give that effect.

otherwise, this poem was golden.
