Whispering Snakes
Shameful whisperings Encircle like hissing snakes Corrode my belief And undermine my faith They sing in my dreams A spiteful tune of woe They slither under my skin They go everywhere I go These snakes bind my hands And wrap around my neck They warn me never to speak Or my life they will wreck Continue reading
