Im No Saint Poem by kirsten simons

There are no words to describe a feeling so dark
There is nothing that can compare to such sorrow
Such anger
Such regret

Why did it all go wrong?
When did god cross his heart and hope id lose you?
Why
Why
Why

Bad things happen to good people
Bad people
Saints
Sinners

In each of us we have a little of both
We control which side we let control us

Nobody can control their hearts
Their minds

But we can control our actions
Our words

Love isn’t a strong enough word to describe it
Hate isn’t either

My love for you is the saint in me
My hate is the sinner

But sometimes that’s in reverse

Sometimes we love things we shouldn’t
Sometimes we hate the things that make us the happiest
That help the world

I'm a sinner and a saint
I just don’t know which one I want to follow

So I’ll just be a little of both
