My Ceaseless Torment

I can feel blades of steel tearing deep into my soul.
Yet no blood pours out of it and still it feels whole.

It keeps existng, despite the waves of terrible pain.
As my eyes flow like the waters of a monsoon rain.

There is nothing that I can do to end my ceaseless torment.
Except to prostrate myself to God and truly repent.

HI, Sheol. This is very POE-ish! Since you were kind enough to comment to preying mantis, I added you to my palindrome list poem. It's centered and is really hard to get names on that list. haha. But I got you there, and I feel bad how many others I probably left off unintentionally. LUv, Andrea
