"When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace" -Jimi Hendrix


I know you’ve told a sin before-
Hell, do I know who I’m talking to? –
But darling, I would tell a lie,
Simply to give a sin to you

To the depths I would walk-
Hell, you know I’d run it, too-
Through the glass I would crawl
Simply to be your sinner, too

Oh the bricks, I would tear-
Hell, you know I would for you-
Through the concrete I would drown
Simply to ink my sinner’s tattoo

Yes, the bravest I would face-
Hell, the weakest, I would too-
Baring the bruises, the cuts, the scars
Simply to my sins renew

Through my façade I would lie-
Hell, I’d steal a heart for you-
As if you haven’t stolen mine
Simply to give a sin untrue

Really interesting poem, I thought the parallel structure between the stanzas was really cool! :-)
