a thief's regret

A Poem by nigrum homonculus

"

I wonder how I got here...isolated by my insecurities.

Drifting through this barren wasteland, pondering a life I once had.

A gun in one hand a man’s balls in the other, fearless i was.

Taking what caught my eye, giving what was deserved.

Hoarding one man’s treasure, squandering like it’s my trash.

A black hole of an addiction, I constantly try to fill.

Possessed by possessions, materials made me mercurial.

Now I survive minute by minute with nothing to love, and nothing to love me.

A consequence of greed,  pulled everything in to push it all away.

Surrendering to the madness and accepting the decisions.

on my knees, I yield! I yield!. my mouth now tasting this cold barrel.

Silently praying, hoping, I will be forgiven

Forgiven for the lives I've crushed and the lies I've told

or do i really deserve that luxury when i have robbed people of theirs.

Alone I stay, ungrateful. Drying up until nothing is left of my selfish body.
