Those Who Wish

You know, a poem about something

You can see us, can't you?
Clutching at the wind.
Forsaken pastures trampled,
Left to rot with broken grins.

We're standing massive statues.
Guarding those who wish to sin.
Telling tales of all the torment,
We've caused since we broke in.

Your whispers keep us feeding,
Delving deep into your skin.
Was it you who had me watching,
Or was I just on a limb?

Failing strands of midnight,
That capture all your kin,
Are really just a message
As to how this all begins.

Guarding those who wish to sin. Intriguing. It is like the opposite of a church.

I'd love to better understand the meaning of your poem.

Well without getting too into my personal feelings written into this, it's basically about the demons of sin and desire
