Wilhelm John Salaria Poet Rhyme

To the Bitter End

With the Darkness from within your own heart's a wry,
You're going to die without anyone to love you and no one to cry.
Just alone by yourself on the bed of your death,
With the stench of regret emanating from your last dying breath,

For you have chosen the path of a bitterly selfish man,
With the blood of your wife and children on your hands.
For the penance you'll pay for the way you've behaved,
Will be written in plain as the name of your grave.

In the fiery pits of hell will your soul perish in agony and horror,
For the consequences of murder is harsh punishments with fervor.
No amount of pleading will cease your unending suffering,
For the aftermath of those deaths is misery and agony unrelenting and neverending.

For the shadows of ghosts of the happenings that will be,
Or maybe those happenings are by made by you for you only.
For you can't buy your way to repent on the deaths you've erased,
The ever-so-clear punishment of infinite torment in death will serve those souls well repaid.

William Darnell Sr June 8, 2022 at 7:03 AM Hello, Wilhelm! I feel the pain in this penned work, and brought tears to my eyes. I had to stop for a minute, set my phone down, and collect myself. The second stanza stands out, Wilhelm, and we all have our sins, but I judge no one and accept them at face value. I'm not sure if this is a confessional, and it's not my business to know either. But the work here is well thought out from the heart, which makes this piece, exquisitely written from a dark time past. Best of Wishes, William William Darnell Sr June 8, 2022 at 7:08 AM PS: You're in my prayers, Wilhelm, and may God Bless you, on this day! Take Care, and have a Great Day!
