Ruins


You are a coward.

A coward with temptations,

That you could not resist

The evil damnations.

That leave my stomach in a twist.

 

Why did you do it?

You said you loved me more.

I thought you were different,

I thought you swore.

 

But it was all make-believe.

From what was the world,

Is now deceived.

Is now contorted and curled.

 

It is now ruins of damaged sin.

Ruins that will never stop making my head spin.
