Sonnet: Atonement

The grief and sadness that now fills my life Are nothing compared to my ingrate deed The hideous words keep my soul in deep strife Those are the profits of a maleficent seed. I sinned and my ignominous treachery Causes the constant gnawing in my conscience, While my brain is blunted and headachy My mind lies blurred in my soul´s dependence. I wish to be reborn and could amend my sin Undo the harm and my ingratitude revoke Goodness and innocence were lost and resign Since I am destroyed by heinous yoke. The venom I threw in my words has returned With my poison my heart and soul are fairly judged.
