Atonement
for sins, for fruits of passion
for desires, for deception
for the loss of innocence
for the demonstration of grime

Death
The purgation, the atonement.
The callous conspiracy of fate
The detachment or the conduit
Or a playful symphony
that brings the end

Birth
The origin, the beginning.
The chance for atonement
Or an escape from it?
Clemency or retribution.
Or simply a paradox to the eternity- death
