Sonnet 111
Laijon Liu 20160604
You know what redemption means?
That the price must be paid full
Forgiveness only applies to the repented
Who blames not society nor fate
Everyone has choices in every circumstance
To join the mob or go solo be undefiled
Gods do not make men, men make gods
The good the bad that hands heart directs
We need no potion to cure our hearts
Nor priest’s water cleanse bloody hand
The silence, the solitude, the bitterness
Makes a man to meditate his past
One must go that dark valley alone
To face his devil, to heal himself
