And Sin There Be

by Sourav   Apr 22, 2010


When dark clouds cover the sky
Rain is ready to fall on tired earth
What picture draws your two wet eyes-
Does a dream arise - a thoughtful little birth?

When a religious monster murders a child
Carefree time brings the wind of death
A mother's cry where the death has piled
How do you find your unquestionable faith?

When life becomes cold- and frightening
No words from heaven only scream of hell
Virtue is faded, fear tied up the wings
How will you live? No voice will tell.

And when vast clouds descend finally
Moment of joy, pleasure for earth divine
But no rain can wash off the sin - and sin there be
In life, in love - in every facet of you and mine.

    //When life becomes cold- and frightening
    No words from heaven only scream of hell
    Virtue is faded, fear tied up the wings
    How will you live? No voice will tell.//

    totally loved this stanza... reminds of what we have done to ourselves... destroying life ... living in a hell like situation...

    //But no rain can wash off the sin - and sin there be
    In life, in love - in every facet of you and mine. //

    ^^some mistakes cannot be repented... they remain with us forver...

    Yes sin is in everything..in every life and no
    rain can wash it all away except the time comes
    for this world to end..a write that makes us think...take care

    Sin is always there in the world and in human beings. The sad thing is that the acts committed by human beings aren't always seen as sin but are nevertheless. Well done.
