Moral Turpitude

I feel so pathetic
Eyes dark as the sky
As many tears as a rainstorm
Thundering down as I cry
I looked in the devil's face
I swear I saw him grin
I know hes coming to get me
Cause I know I haved sinned
So many transgressions
Happy moments few
I feel so unworthy
Moral turpitude
Just walk away from me
Excuse the attitude
I just don't feel worthy
Moral turpitude

Note: I hate when I let things make me feel this way. Fortunately, I haven't felt this way in a long time. I hope you never do but if you happen to feel this low remember, once you are so far down you can only go up.

Nice job of expressing that state of mind. Definately relatable and could feel what you were going through. Had a nice rhythm to it too.

You know just how I feel!

You need an apostrophe...
I know he's...

Thanks! I took your advice and shortened it up a bit. I also changed some of the wording. You offer great advice and I appreciate you very much!

This is a bit too long and rambling, but I can see an excellent poem lurking there in your misery.
