piercing, your glance shows hollow disappointment.
and i suddenly feel sorry for myself
as the frustration falls across my cheekbone.
i am never enough. i am never enough.
you have shown me that.
it is not worth trying--
somehow you are set to feel annoyed with me.
love and frustration synonymize.
whatever -- [!!!] --
as i burn the remnants of my past life,
and place my most deadly sins into this spiritual noose.
[superbia. avaritia. luxuria. invidia. gula. ira. acedia.]
take the worst of these and burn it. burn them all.
purify me. burn me. burn everything.
maybe one day...
i will be strong enough to proceed.
