Corruption

Poetry

By Destiny JohnsonPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

where is the angel in the touch of the woman who broke your smile.

obliterated your trust with the deceit in her walk

made you doubt your god in the aftermath of her voodoo

i want to slap the salvation back into her woman

kick a resurrection of her feminine beauty back into forever

punch the sanity into what once was a righteous soul

we are the eve of creation

how dare she forget the birth of her virtue in the depths of her broken heart

like she doesn’t breathe in futuristic fantasies

i’m sorry

but this ungodly creature does not deserve redemption

she has stained her purity in adultery

opened her temple to men who knew nothing of the walls they entered

and claimed she was looking for a savior

sad poetry
