Anger that festers in the center of oblivion
Scorched in the sin of a choir's silence
Within a broken clock, hours pass in muted rhythm
Swelling red stars are blistering our eyes
Corrupting that which is an interrupted heart
We fall beneath forgotten friends to remember lies
Where rotten apples are laid to rest within their incense
Playing heinous games with the poison teasing it's veins
Taking to battle this intriguing fruit and savoring the malevolence
This is the feeling that keeps our hearts from breathing
The rage that drowns our memories in acidic fortune
An eternal wound that keeps our joy forever bleeding
To see it would be to accept the
Antidote, buried beneath a
Twisting chaos. The Seed
That is the Heart
Of poison
And sin.

I'm rather confused, i won't deny it, but i can say with some surety that I agree with what has been said. The only thing that has me completey boggled is your last line, does it mean that the only way to remedy your problem is to accept it?
Beautiful Neph

this is amazing! so deep and very powerful, i love the shape you have crafted it into. very deep indeed, and great use of vocab. i think the title is great, 'the greatest battle' sums it up completely. a fitting suggestion from the comment below

sometimes through life we each seek those lessons that teach us...
even though those lessons aren't easy to learn....
somehow we still learn them.
Interesting perspective!
Keep penning on one stroke at a time!
