7 deadly sins

Behold the strengths which I contain within.
The apparent harbinger of forthcoming sin.
My right to preserve, a visage to behold.
The powers acquired so deep that I fight to control.

I am Greed, the worthiest of sin,
To stop at nothing and fight to win.
No limits can hold me, no sky too high.
Everything is obtainable, anything else is a lie.

I am Gluttony, the companion of Greed,
The indulgence of taste, the craving of need.
To wallow in the senses or just the desire of flavour.
Life is already too short, so I set forth to savour.

I am Wrath, the oldest of my brothers.
I burn into your soul, I blind you to others.
I give you strength when you are at your most weak,
But take heed, for bloodlust will all be what you will seek.

I am Envy, the hub of my siblings.
I give power to my kind, I amplify the feelings
To have what others possess, whether qualities or goods.
I never stand people better than me, I deserve it rather than you should.

I am Sloth, no other has more apathy.
To lie back and relax, to be very much carefree.
Some may complain and say I get no work done.
But they always get a heart attack because they are no fun.

I am Lust, the sexiest of desire.
The primal need that sets your loins on fire.
I give great pleasure to those that worship me.
But none can run away for I am rooted deep within thee.

I am Pride, the last, the hardest of my kind.
I am the will, the courage and the confidence of mind.
I shall render you immune to abuse and all mental attack.
The price to pay is that selflessness and altruism is what you lack.

I am Humanity, the bearer of this curse and gift.
They are part of me, I cannot deny, for such will tear in me a rift.
So I seek to make use and master that which I have burning within.
Or I shall fall behind in suffering, an empty shell of what could have been.
