the fallen

-->
THE FALLEN
You were the body of conflict
With a conscious dogged by lies
And a heart haunted by truths
Your face curved in indignation
Offence at the accusation


You stood to leave- storm out,
But your feet were rooted to the spot
The atmosphere started to get hot.
As though by a spell cast,
Your tongue started to roll on
Confessing crimes concealed


You wiped the sweat on your brow
Your guilt out for all to see.
Now fallen from the peddle stone
And one all your pride now gone
You thought yourself a god,
Tell me,
How does it feel being human again?
