Regret has left me with a taste
a craving if you will to find
what opportunities fell to waste
and what delights come to mind.
Restraint has taught me to savor,
to draw out the torture of the tease,
My tongue to experience each flavor
and the urgent need to please.
Selfishness leads me to my demise
taking one in basest of need
moans, murmurs and pleading cries
Hallmarks of my deviant greed
Secrecy leads me to so much I hide
behind a mask, a mask and yet a mask
one of greed, one of lust and one of pride
to give them up is too much to ask
Confession of your sins they say
is good for the body and the soul
until you find the sins you display
are not part of the parcel but the whole.
