Haiku: Making Amends


I now realize
That I tried to kill myself
While living a lie,

Seeking pleasure at
The expense of defiling
Myself and women

Who were complicit
To the self inflicted wounds
We carved in our souls.

Substance abuse and
Fornication were the choice
Instruments of self

Destruction; consumed
By both like a cess pool drain,
I tried to hide the

Pain, but it was plain
To see by any who was 
In tune with spirit

Matters, because mine
Was empty and near complete
Possession. It was

As if transgression
Was the lifestyle of choice for
Me. Too blind to see

The light within, sin
Prevented me from being
Able to transcend

And go beyond the
Veil of skin that cloaks what lies
In the hearts of men

That reconnects souls
To their original state
And makes them a whole

Again. So now the 
Healing process begins and
I shall make amends...
