I can't sleep
I can't sleep knowing what i know that others don't know
But they could never know what i know for i know that i know that it's wrong
It's wrong because it's sin
It's sin because of how i was raised to be
How i was raised to be?
In a dark room with glimmering light from the sun
It's just like the way my truth starts to slip
When my truth starts to slip
I could never forgive
I could never
Never could i ever
Ever
Look you in the eye again.

A most interesting structure to this poem that seems to ripple with each line and echo with each thought. It culminates in an unknown, what is the sin and who is being talked to. The mystery enhances the power of the poem and changes its interpretation. Lovely
To me this poem conveys virtue and betrayel. Such a good write. Beautiful and passionate.
