sin

A breath of stale air wilts my welted heart With each step it's like nails driving between my tender toes With each word a cuss With each doing a sin Incredibly unworthy am I before your thrown your precious hand warm gestures me to step closer It is I that turn away from my blessed savior Only to be hurt once more Only to slaughter your name in vain crying in a preposterous manner why it is you've rejected me again I am a fool with ideals of a faint heart so tempted to slither sleek along rugged roads and bare more than my back can take I consume sin eagerly when you are so generous so perfect so forgiving whilst I am so naive
