Apologies for not posting for some time... The move to University hasn't really left me with much free time, and the free time I have had has been used watching Breaking Bad instead of actually doing anything productive, but I shall do my best to get back on schedule... or something.
As recompense for not posting for such an extended period, here is something I produced for a seminar I had last week... be warned, it's pretty depressing, and pretty dark, but isn't most of the stuff I have on here?
The Silence
“I
know who you are”
She
said;
Lost
in a blinding dream.
“I
know who you are”
She
wailed;
With
no air in her lungs to scream.
“You
are the pride, you are the sloth
That
has been sent to punish me for living this way.
You
are the lust, you are the greed
That
has come here to see that I dutifully pay
For
my crimes, for my cowardice and for my fear.
You
are the glutton, you are the envy
That
is here to judge if I am humbly sincere.
You
are my own wrath
For
leading myself down this foolish path.”
“I
know who you are”
She
cried;
Her
tears impairing her vision.
“I
know who you are”
She
sobbed;
Sincerely
regretting her decision.
And
as the darkness took her,
And
her pain disappeared into the night
Her
senses dulled and crippled,
She
uttered with both defeat and defiance:
“I
know who you are-
The
Silence.”
