The Evil Bone of Glory

Sorrow & shame has become an outfit 
To his body and soul, tears as scars on his face 
Hunger & tiredness are now the maker of his hours 
Unhappiness lays in the heart of him, in a land that is full
Of bread & Honey, glory upon glory 
Pain his guardian & companion, Fears are his siblings
Dry and Dryer is skin goes, he knows no joy, he hopes to 
Continue with that pain when his cursed heart stop beating in agony, his believe was "if the maker of heaven & earth exist he 
Should have felt the glory. And he died

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
