Midnight Sin

Lying in my sea of midnight sin

I see threatening images of darkness

Looming in mirror of past misdeeds

Stung by needles of pain within

Life a destructive deception

Finding shadows in absence of light

Undulating serpents creep within

Eyes that can’t see, can’t escape

Glass of soul breaks, leaving trails

of hurt shadows and cold touch

I sleep in never ending evil

Alone, I listen to the end,

suffocated by black murkiness.
