Redemption

Yes, it is true; you were a part of my life

And I grieve for you.

If a part of life had to be abandoned and shredded off,

It is a reminder that it was a fair share of life, so valuable!

Yes, I grieve for you, but I can’t think about going into the same pain, same hell, you put me through.

I can’t think of a reconciliation, as every time it causes an annihilation.

Destruction of me and there has been no cure!

You were a necessary evil.

I bait my heart at the wrong queue.

Yes, I am at fault.

Because I fell into the lure of devils,

To fall in love was my fault!

A crime that can’t be rewound,

A sin that can’t be erased,

A vice that has only swirls and turns,

A fault that has only punishment with no redemption!

Forever, chained with the stain!

I see no bail, no assurance!

Why don’t you believe in people anymore?! – Cause, I don’t want anyone to exploit my reason. How’s that like?!
