Opulence

Are you proud or are you ashamed of me?

One who watches while I betray my body

I loved so much I forgot to grieve

Help me understand I wanted to see

Oh, Father can I ever return to thee?

Did I take too much of what you gave to me?

With these words

One purpose

Tread the path

Opulence

To the ones who gave your life to greed

You will die alone among the predators

On a bed of worms

Ready to consume

The bitterness of wasted life

Since I fell from your presence

I made this my home and I am alive here

In this place

Once the breathe ceases in my chest

The salt from my tears dries

These bottomless eye will stare at

Opulence
