Original Sin?
When you chock it all up to letting them fall bits and pieces shattered disco ball to blanket the epic fail.

Ulcers
Leaf  of the trees Rounding the apples Under the rain Sound of the battles Rain on the umbrella Pain for the gain I see beauty In all this wretched game In the liars game The only way to win Is to trust them fully And be stupid as you can be The only way to win Is to lose all the rights To win what's left Those written on the walls Drawing a paint Painting a draw Are we playing still Or are we back to life

Memories of the innocence
Put me in Adam's place between A lonely garden of barren bliss And my love in the abyss. I'd eat from the palm of her hand And lick her forbidden fruit clean. No gift could tie me to this land But my shameful baby. By my God, I'd gladly go banned. Only need the blessing of my baby. When you've already bit into sin, There'd be nothing else to do, But look satan's snake in the eyes, grin, And greet the original fall with wide open arms. All's well as long as I'm with you. Towards hell's fires, I'd crawl. Swim through the flames of the pyres. No death I couldn't desire, As long as I'm with you.

As Long as I'm with You
This death won't be my last, I've been here before. The serpent tempts me to eat the apple, Null it down to the core. Going back to my original sin. I am going back down again.

Original Sin.
I’m made of dust, dried bones and incomplete, To be cursed for want of a stolen rib, Barely alive with the faintest heartbeat, A grown man like an orphan in his crib. No room for a soul in my shriveled veins, No life support for fragile loneliness, To acquiesce in sadness given reins, A flawed experiment in holiness. To be alive gives no consolation, My helpmate has absconded with my soul, Turning my devotion to temptation To fill a void when I should have been whole. This lesson has been far too hard to learn! To God-forsaken earth let me return!

Sonnet To Desperation
The pitter-patter on the panes Is music of the autumn rains 'Til barren tree and downy snow Tell the fall, "It's time to go."
