Marked

It's not enough.
Sometimes,
nothing is enough.
Just the fact that
you brush shoulders
with evil leaves a taint
upon your soul.
And no amount of
good deeds,
positive intentions
or prayer ever really
changes the fact
you encountered
latent evil
where It should
never have been.

The ticker is fading.

Sully the mind,

defile the flesh,

contaminate the eyes,

pollute the nose,

infect the ears,

and stain the heart.

 

Did I mention I was in love with your writings?

Putrid touches of beautiful. <3

Faith Is Not Faith

...if it is not tested. Evil is the product of the enemy, but the stain fades with time. The nature of free will and freedom as we idealistically practice it declares that evil can freely exist on any clock or map or space. Scars heal. Faith triumphs. If the enemy triumphs - faith fades ~A~
