Crooked As My Heart
Every night I wake up under the same crooked tree
Staring at the rotten body that once was me
Punishment for my sins my cold heart admits
For when I was alive I dared cross all my limits.
A wretch I was, my dark soul knew no kindness
Many I did hurt in this ravaging blindness
Thirst for blood or maybe just revenge
There were many whose death I wanted to avenge
But I gave in to despair, to pain and cruelty
Erroneously believed they were my truth and my honesty.
Now I’m dead, visiting this tree every night
Reminding me of my sorrow, my madness and my plight.
My evil mind was as crooked as this tree
Ugly, hideous figure forever punishing me
But I deserve, I had no right to torture and kill
It looks like Fate has curbed me to its Will.
(I no longer know what I’m doing, too tired… the metrics isn’t great but it’s my best atm. Thank you for reading.)
