The Sin

There is a shell around this shadowed face
That hides and protects me from myself,
The pointless lies and unbearable space
Between faith and me: The Sin.

But this shell will shatter over time
And shards of hope and dreams will die,
Drowning between almost every line
Lies myself: The Sin.

This life-suppressing entity
Has taken my heart, my soul, my voice;
It has taken my mind, my memory:
The Blame, The Selfish, The Sin.
