All the things it did,
All the lies it told,
Everything it destroyed,
Oh that sinful soul.
Somethings are left forgotten,
Trying not to look back on that sinful soul,
All the things it did,
Everything you let it do.
All the soul's actions,
They soon come down upon me,
That damn sinful soul.
So cold,
So uncaring,
So sinned.
That sinful soul seems to lurk,
Darkness,
Night fall,
And dawn it preys.
All because the sins I have commited,
My damn sinful soul.
If I had cuts for all my sins,
My body would be in ribbons.
All the sins are things to learn from.
My sinful soul lurks deep down inside,
Waiting to be let out again,
So it can commit more sins,
And take no blame for it,
That bloody sinful soul.
Here I am,
Trying to tame my sinful soul.
And trying to keep me in control.
Oh well,
It is only my sinful soul.
So until I can tame it,
I will be sinned,
Cut to ribbons,
Torn to pieces,
All because of this damn sinful soul.

As the good book says, "All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God."
Great poem. It is a reflection of the age old struggle of our sinful nature and our yearning for a higher state of perfection.

Thank you for saying it was a good poem. And yes, the good book as you state sometimes does speak out to me. I am not a religious person but sometimes I do find it helpful to get in converstation with religious persons. And I see what you are saying in the last sentence. We all do want a higher state of prefection, some accomplish that goal, others fail. But everyone will be equal, since we are all just human.
