Retribution

Here I am, on my bed, staring at the white ceiling,
As I face the colorless roof, the darkness has come into a feeling
Corrupting my brain with this infidelity,
I drowned in demon's red dead sea.

A year filled with pain and suffering
The torturous road I had to be walking,
With bare foot I traveled into the desert,
A soulless corpse I've become, I shivered.

The cold, sleepless nights froze me,
The scorching days of hell has burnt me,
With constant pain, upon sin I was devoured,
A soulless carcass I was, became a demon.

Upon forgiveness, I begged, I pleaded,
Upon light, I tried but never succeeded.
A mask of lies facaded this demon,
A brute like me, is not worthy to be freed on.

Chances were given to me as much as He loves me,
But I turned away, still a sinner, I shun Him.
Words of His divine whisper tried to save me,
But no, it was useless, I was deaf, I never listen.

No matter how much I tried to ask for help,
My lips were chained and words were kept.
My voice was stolen, my freedom was broken,
As much as I was filled with darkness, I was shaken.

An unexplainable plague has come into my life,
In shambles I fell, I was ruined in time.
The heart that was once strong has now weakened,
As the demons come to feed on my weakness.

Healers could not extend their aid,
As I fell deep in the well, I swayed,
I was beyond repair, I would say,
None can save me, a corpse, I lay.

Retribution, this is what I have been called upon,
As such as I needed to kill me so long.
My life as my payment, is that what You desire?
Be it as it may, You shall declare me an Exile.
