The Penance

Updated: Sep 9, 2020



The curtains closed,

As the wind blew in.

The silence was so loud,

I could hear the drop of a pin.

My mind screeched,

My eyes bled,

The piercing thoughts struck my head.

A day, a week, a month and years,

I called myself many names

I dropped many tears.

Then as the lights swam past,

And my bones started to rust,

The blood all dry in my veins,

I try to breath, every time it rains.

But I knew there is a God above,

He showed the ways of love.

The way is curled, the street and the lane,

The way that I curved,

On a paper with a pen.
