Something inside me
Is telling me to kill
Something within me
Says it could be a thrill.
My mind is drifting
In sweet thoughts of lust
When im in such a state
I cannot be made to trust.
I raise such interest
in the thoughts of greed
everything around me
is everything I now need.
My eyes shut slowly
At the pure laziness of the day
I drift in the sloth
and my tiresome ways.
My desires are strong
And I want another's joy
I can make everyone around me
An envious toy
Seeing everyone around me
I laugh in my own pride
My egotistic ways
Is something I can never hide.
Luxury is now a necessity
And I cant help my creed
I suppose gluttony
Is now a sinful need.
Do you practice all 7 Sins?

Welcome to AllPoetry...the greatest place to share your work!
Interestingly you've used all the capital sins with biblical foundation.
I don't practice them all, but I've sensed their pull on the human condition.
A very interesting subject that is adequately addressed over all.
With a little tweaking, this could be a very intense
piece that will be confronting the readers.
Thank you for posting!
