Spools of thread Ties all together Into little knots Connect away Pull the string up and down And around Repentance for your sins Every scar is a sign of regret Every thought brands your skin Within the many ties What even is there? Half a mind Half of a thought Act until stagecall Why are you still lying? Didn't they say that they would love you? Didn't they not want to know more? Repeating facts that are easy to swallow Again and again Until you drop Do you have any sense? Perhaps the worries of your insanity, Are true When the thread runs out Whose life will it be Yours? Another's? Another sacrifice To a divine punishment Your hands hardened by blood By all of the fates Ignore how pathetic you are You can barely stand how kind they are They tolerate a sinner One more day One more push One last tie On and on Rewrite the last words Dilute yourself Whining Whining Yet all of the pity Burns you What a stupid thing You'll cut the thread in the end You can see the end And yet you indulge #writing #horror #poetry #cw-religious-imagery
