Whisper In The Wind

Somewhere in the back of my head, I hear voices
What could it mean?
Could it be voices of those I have wronged?
Or maybe my evil thoughts
Or is it of those I love or lust?
My sins maybe as countless as the dust,
But you are no saint either


The whispers still lingers
What could it be?
Could it be God trying to turn me from my sinful ways?
But that voice is barely audible these days
Or is it the devil trying to make me commit more
And this voice grows louder every minute


The voices continue
So also, it does, everyday of our lives
words of right and wrong crosses the mind
But at the end of the day, what matters is the choice we make

The poem is nice with the rhethorical questions that show the provoking dilemmas in our daily lives. I think the poem will be most beautiful if all the lines are almost equal to each other. In the last line too ur spelling of 'choice' is wrong in the first line 'somewhere' . Also, in the first line ill advise that u remove the 'her' there because in the third line u said could it be voices of....in the 2nd stanza, also correct ur use of upper nd lower cases to spell God

Great piece! So honest and percise. The last line says it all. Thank you for sharing.
