Sins' Lament
Everything in moderation
three words
Seven deadly sins
Never heard
Love just wasn't enough for lust
Love fades
Lust burns til satisfied
Needs weren't enough for greed
Just wasn't cutting it
More became a must
Confidence didn't go a long way for pride
A boost sat you high enough to see the table
But you still had to get fed
Satisfaction wasn't sweet enough for gluttony
What worth was the taste of victory?
If the victor was numb?
Anger wasn't fulfilling for wrath
Can't hold a candle to
An all consuming pillar of fire
Relaxing only got sloth halfway there
Swaying in content
was nothing like
Sinking in lament
Envy is blind to self worth
Vision obscured
By your successes
You are enough
Three words
Seven deadly sins
Never heard
