Best Poems Written by Jessica Rivera

I Sold My Soul

I lost a part of me today . . . a part of me that I held so close 
I broke a memory into a million pieces, 
A memory of love, a love I compared to my love for the Lord

So deep, so pure, so innocent 
I sit in pain, body and soul aching . . . dying to cry, but
Holding it in 
As to not feel weak 
I'm broken, a piece of me dead and gone, vanished 
An unfair trade of my soul for sheer pleasure 
I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to kill you 
I didn't mean to cause you misery, I didn't mean to see you
Dying 
And not save you 
I'm sorry, so sorry
