The Walks
You walk for glory, the story
Endowed with heavenly purpose
I walk in nightmares and horrors
With great evils trying to surface
You walk in light, the bright
Sun that gives life
I walk in night, and dark
Lurking to inflict pain and strife
You walk with the mostly holy; I promenade with the most lowly
High standards of morals and values, but I dwell in the lair of immorality
You are of the few and the faithful, while I walk with traitors and excommunicators
Your walk is of the divine, mine is of the wretched mind
The sinful kind, the kind forever searching to sin all the time
As vile as I am I can not escape my love for you
You are the master of my affections so it is my duty to serve you caution
To try to distance you from an unachievable mission
Because I know I’m no good and I know that you should.
Surrender your inner battle of searching for good… in me
I warn you not to save me, you can have no victory with me
It is futile, a journey without destination.
So you walk on and leave me to my own
And don’t worry about me, I have plenty company
My demons are always with me…
Endowed with heavenly purpose

But if they are the master of your affection....any make the choice to sin? This is deep, exposing....speaks to the dark crescent in me

can affection really master over, lustful sin?
like being loyal, but not faithful..
one has to atleast attempt to understand their demons and warn off would be good samaritans
...appreciate you as always

Two things come to mind after reading this: 1- ...the saying goes its better to have loved and lost than not to have loved at all. Which has some merit but love is about giving and they never truly understood what a gift they had cest le vie.......2- there's a quote by Marilyn Monroe that says, " I may sin, but I'm not the devil".
Dark and interesting.
