Death and Sins

Crackling and burning. 

Twisting and turning. 

The black smoke rises 

In many shapes and sizes. 

Smelling chard flesh, 

So sweet and fresh. 

No way to fix. 

Just stir and mix. 

The bodies with bones, 

The bodies with no souls to own. 

 

Too far gone. 

No way to carry on. 

Dancing in the night 

The black smoke takes flight. 

No way to see, 

No way to flee. 

 

Trapped in darkness. 

You're now heartless. 

Feelings have left. 

No longer a beat in you're breast, 

Or an inhale of breath. 

Now just a painful death. 

 

Screams heard all around. 

In this Hell you're forever bound. 

Just accept the fact, 

You're bones are now cracked. 

No way to save. 

Forever a slave. 

Because of your sin 

You're now trapped in your own skin. 

Author's Notes/Comments: 

The person being talked about in this peom has been thrown into Hell because of their sin but this Hell is a personal one where they're trapped in their own body as it's being burned and tortured. The first few lines came to me in a dream I was having and I woke up after I heard it many times so I wrote it down and added on.
