Sins: Envy
April 21, 2016
Envy, a sin that sticks like glue.
How can one atone for Your existence?
You merge Yourself with my dark shadow,
the green-eyed monster with no panacea.
I must live out my days adjoined
to your side like a conjoined twin,
feeling Your covetousness with every waking breath.
