Our sin lies not in what we have done But rather in what we will not do Even leaving behind, what weve begun Never knowing what, we should have knew
Not speaking the words, that should be said To each other, in prayer or for anothers sake Lost chances of pity, a bitter adieu Rippling and taunting, in loud silences wake
Those things that you or I swore to do Ever bargaining for, a little more time From this day to the next, excuses renew Errands ongoing, lifes victimless crime
What cant you hear from the bottom of the pool Submerged in waters of selfish immoderation Shrouded and dampened by this watery tulle A failing which lead to ones own damnation
Anathema to all, for a gift thats not given Love dispossessed, not given a home To be offered love, is to surely be shriven Proffering love leaves a soul not to roam
Who or what we should love and have not Promises broken and tasks left undone What shouldve been said, even though fraught Leaves a soul empty, an essence of naught

I feel you here deeply my friend.
Lovely verse and a bit sad as well.
I think we often ponder these things dont we?
Hugs you

This is one of my favorites
Your words flow beautifully
I love what you have said here
Too true
The things we never do,
Never think about
Although we should
Leaves a bigger mark on our souls
Bigger marks on the world
Around us
Hugs and best of my wishes to you
Kara
