An Evil Life Left Behind

Fallen in the sea,

was a part of me.

A part,

so dark and evil,

had left me.

Forever.

Gone

were the days

of wrongdoings,

stealing things.

I was free,

free to do anything with my life!

But I was lost.

I was hungry.

There was no roof over me.

My treasures were too,

lost forever

in the churning sea.

I had depended on

cheating my way in life.

This bitter truth struck me like a knife.

I thought that a little fun

would be harmless.

But, I guess

It wasn't.

I ponder over everything I've done.

Everything I've hoped for,

Everything I've gotten.

But all my actions,

all my words,

are wrong.

It's too late

to forget the past,

to make it right.

All I can do is bow my head

in shame

For the rest of my life,

My crimes casting

a heavy shadow

over my limp, wounded body.
