You rip apart my soul with your smiles creation

You rip apart my soul with your smile's creation
You talk to my heart like its a deviation -

from social normality and all the reality
This desperation is like cancer's profanity

That floats to the surface, amidst propaganda
Taking a look, at your life river's meander

We sail on tall ships, into the winds of tomorrow
To change our futures, we'll beg, steal and borrow.

You cant sell the past to make a healthy living
Your greatest sin is your lack of forgiving

Please tell me what you think

    And bless me or forgive me, but I can't help thinking a period at the very end of the last sentence would bring a tiny but very much needed grain of finality to the sentence or judgement rendered at the very end, which by the way is perhaps the strongest line in the poem. And which I do like, by the way.

    This is so great. I love the flow of this poem and the very powerful message that you have put forward here. I loved the lines "You cant sell the past to make a healthy living Your greatest sin is your lack of forgiving". These words are so true. Well done. Great work.
