Nightfall

I surrender.
I give up.

It was like a nightfall.
Obscurity dominated.
Like desolation.
Darkness illuminated.

I just stood there, stunned.
Around me, I saw nothing, no one.
I'd never been through
such phase. I didn't know what to do.

I had committed a lot of crimes.
What was different this time?
I always knew I was never pure
but when did I turn such grim.
That man, he never hurt me, never.
Then why? Why did I have to hurt him?

This guilt, regret, remorse that rests
upon my rueful chest.
It will always be there, like a letter,
written by a tearful me to the sinister me.
His scream, like an aching symphony,
is what I will have to hear, forever.

'Sins split souls'
I've realized this now.
So, allow me take a step back
and take a bow.
I surrender, my Lord, I give up.
No harm, on anyone, because of me,
would ever befall.
Accept my tears, accept me as I come
to thou, this very Nightfall.
