Preachers and Believers

by @simpleton

Spriralling down profanity Standing on the cliff of blasphemy She looked for angels inside of demons Where God's decree was nowhere to be found She had faith in what she saw Preachers and believers Insolence and deciept Their words of judgement reaching out to cage her in Threatening punishment Imploring her to forgiveness God, there is sacrilege This world is rampant with hypocrites Her heart is full of your love Yet desires the forbidden The unsanctioned It harms not a soul, not even her own But holds her happiness down the one path That strays just a little from the rules God, who loves the impious preachers and believers The patient and forgiving Can these two paths not become one? Where the blood in her veins runs by His decree Every breath she takes is with His grace
