Sinful mortal

 

Now I can sleep, now I can die

Now I can fall breathless and lie

For I have reached them God’s shores

For my mind in sin it soars

 

Underneath dust of the sky

A mourn turns to laughter then a sigh

Again in black fields, what are the odds

In one crowded place I have found my gods

 

And I sigh in joy and in silence I stand

The golden hour of ancient sand

And the dawn of holy ghost

I was found, I was never lost

 

I found a sigh I found a cry

I found a soul that dies to try

A crow and sparrow

Of now and tomorrow

 

And all pauses of time

A sound of another mime

There under transparent disguise

Where hell falls from the skies

 

I found lonesome I found disperse

I found demons for me to posses

I found cure and death within

I found more beneath the skin

 

For each wrong question I found an answer

Spreads in my mind like curing cancer

There under sky of dust

There under light of lust

 

Satan take me to the deepest of hell

I’ve seen a dawn that none can tell

I’ve seen life, I’ve seen death

I’ve seen poverty I’ve seen wealth

 

But never I’ve seen eyes of night

Fade away all other lights

For god sent me a light of my own

A light of colors never were shown

 

Strike me thunder if I was wrong

Or rain don’t fall to my song

Open your arms and welcome me death

For that was my last mortal breath

[Coyote Poetry]

Good movement of thoughts and I like the journey you took me with you in your words. We will test God and the Devil many times. Most of us walk a thin line between good and bad. I like the complete poem. A strong ending to a excellent poem.

well done.. it has good rhythm..

I like the themes of redemption and forgiveness.
It wonderfully written with wonderful, simple text.
When I say simple I don't mean anything bad. I say this because you didn't make your poem too powerful by using large words. Instead you allowed the theme and meaning speak for itself.
