The seven deadly sins
Wrap me up in fire
The Devil’s flaming tongue
Curses as I enter
Below the ground
Below the earth
So far down
It begins to hurt
I’m only human
The seven deadly sins.
This poem actually used to be part of a song I wrote a few years back during the summer when I locked myself in my room with my guitar and just spewed out a ton of songs. I never quite liked the lyrics but the chorus always stuck with me so I thought by turning it into a poem I could launch a series of poems about each of the “Seven Deadly Sins”!
I really enjoyed this. Would love to see the rest of it!
