Seeds of Dismay
I am someone, or something, you will never want to meet.
I'm devoted to my work; no time off and little sleep.
An upside is the travel, and when Death and I compete.
My job is quite demanding as it can't stay incomplete.
I seek out dark souls who inflict harm upon another.
These dark souls who strive to be cruel, torment and belittle.
Disguised as disease, I would creep in deep undercover,
to plant my seeds that would make their sinister plans brittle.
I plant these seeds of feelings to deflate their ego trip.
Distressing feelings of guilt, remorse, regret and sorrow.
Dark souls attempt to suppress these emotions they can't grip.
The longer they suppress, the stronger these feelings would grow.
If they choose to fight and continue in their harmful way,
my seeds grow into weeds and their mind becomes unstable.
Next their life will fall apart as friendships start to decay.
And when they're all alone, they realize they are in trouble.
Suicidal thoughts may mount as these feelings unravel.
Be forewarn! Suicide would be a decision to resent.
I have crafted an eternal contract with the devil;
intentional death results in your eternal torment.
If you are one of these dark souls who has done someone wrong.
Confessing and repenting may help you feel a bit well,
but it won't undo the harm done on any other one.
You must reverse all you have done, or you will rot in hell.
Know there are many steps that you must partake on your own,
but sadly these steps are written in another dark poem.
