Resolve My Soul
The Bubbling torment inside myself
My blackened soul consumed by a ring of fire
The phantoms of the flames beckon me
With contorted features of hungry malice
When will you seek me out?
When will your arms come forth and snatch me?
Please have Mercy - for I have sinned
Yet my heart is brimming with remorse
I dread the deeds that will be bestowed upon me
Please do not feed me to the banished beasts
My silk dress is still fragile
My soul lingers untouched
Grotesque visions haunt my every being
But despite flawlessness,
Impurity still precedes me
I beg of your benevolence, Master of the Crimson Corrosion
Persecute me not like that of the others,
For I remain unspoiled.

Glad you enjoyed the poem! Your comment certainly struck a cord with me - I am not religious, nor do I have any Italian influences.
However the poem is one of many that I have wrote in conjunction with an epic story (that I have yet to finish!..) concerning a young Italian girl that finds herself in the deep, dark depths of hell......
You must be very perceptive!
