Broken, shattered
Dreams unraveled
Yet new life springs
From empty matter

Bury me
That I might live
A damaged vessel
Is all I give

Bruised and battered
Full of sin
O wretched man
Abiding within

Bitterness watered
By the tears I've cried
Forgive me Lord
For I have tried

Arms outstretched 
Mercy tender
For victory now
I must surrender

Seemingly heartfelt; certainly, heartrending!

Oh my..emotive and evocative work, sadly relatable. Especially warming the 'I' in your last verse, ... self-forgiveness such a painful liberation.  Exquisite work, raw on point.
