Decay
Her heart is sloth Her body is lust Her eyes are envy Her soul is gluttony Id say she carried all sins But I look From the outside I only know external truth Truth bleeds from our pores It does not hide Ever so slowly Does it expose us So let your curtains close Cover your sins Keep your dignity Save yourself Sooner or later Your cracks will spread They will gape open You will be revealed

Truth
Your name A single word And yet The air is pulled from my lungs It's as if you wait For the word to drip From my cracked lips And give you access I swear I have sewn you out I have I promise But With every single thought of you And with every utter Of your name I feel you carve a new entrance You are Not only My guiltest of desires But The poison In my veins
