I did it again
I stopped and watched the sin
Found myself enthralled, captivated by it
Then I sat, my hands itching to take part
In this evil concubine of sin made by man
Then I sinned
I blemished  the snow, my soul, the One the Savior died to cleanse
I burned the bright bridge that lead to the One
All that work
All that prayer
Only for a single, evil thought to burn it all away
Right before my eyes
I sinned
Now I watch as I’m pulled back
The light I so desperately desire shrinking
Shrinking
Shirking
Till I found myself completely immersed in darkness
My heart beats, it doubles as my eyes sweep this oblivion I’ve created
Looking forward there is no light
On silent darkness
I sinned
And burned the bridge that lead me to Him
