The world will expo your sins.
Boast about the blood dripping off
of your fingers for years to come.
For nights when tears shed like
snake skin lies will slither in between
the cracks of your heart and
plant seeds of hate.
They will sprout like weeds;
the world will love you for this.
They will even make an idol of you
out of your scars like old slaves
being whipped for seeing the world
beyond the cotton field.
The young will believe this is
what it means to be human.
To let your scars ruin you;
to believe surrendering to sin
should be as easy as taking a breath.
In this world that may be true.
But only if its your last.
