Forgive Me

[Zerric]

A throbbing pain bathes me in despair,
Blood on my hands, blank eyes that stare,

A crushing darkness, screams from hell,
Is time going on? I cannot tell,

Running from pain, a reflex action,
My heart bleeds, from this attraction,

Am I being chased? What was that sound?
Was that my heartbeat or have I been found?

Footsteps approach.....What should I do?
The guilt of existance breaks me in two.

He comes closer. I can barely stand.
I killed her, I can kill this man....

Hands crush his throat, the strength of the Devil,
His body spasms, then ceases to tremble.

What have I done? My skull splits open.
This black heart exists since the other is broken.

I look up. What's this? A church in sight.
A welcoming beacon, a guiding light.

I walk to the gate, good, its not locked.
The doors crash open, the priest stands shocked.

The blood on my hands, that stains my clothes.
What should I do? Only He knows.

The priest stands aside, hands clasped in prayer.
Ha! The Fool! He prays for the Savior,

But My body moves of its own accord,
I fall to my knees, fall to the Lord.

The fire is gone, The fury dimmed.
Forgive Me, Lord............

I Have Sinned.
