A soul without faith withers into oblivion
A spirit lost to hope no longer endures
A heart void of love is still-born into eternity
A mind in denial knows no clarity of purpose
Who can be saved once fallen to these depths?
What shall riches matter in the face of such depravity?
How can charity survive amongst so many hardened hearts?
For the world feeds well on such souls
Devouring from within
Leaving empty vessels aimless and broken
Deceived by material gratifications
Oblivious to Truth
Knowing only what can be touched
Demonizing the good
Rationalizing righteousness
Condemned to become dust
Never to know the face of God
