God is aware of the ugliness
of our sin; not confessing to
Him, ensures that misery will
replace our joy; seriousness

of the Human condition should
not be an excuse that keeps us
from reaching out to Him in a
prayer of repentance. Could

we allow… known imperfections
to define us, when forgiveness
is readily available? How can
we choose to dismiss Salvation

when we possess His holy breath
and the chance to escape Death?

Psa 32, 33:6; Job 33:4

Under this whimsical sky
Leaning at the feet of a huge tree
With my pen ready to scribble
The words that needs to be,
Written!
The bloating thoughts that eat
My soul like a parasite
Has spread to my physical being
Hoping for a peak of light
But the cure has suppressed
Unfortunately!
I know I am not alone in this
This epidemic has spread wide
A countless antidote taken to ease
Leaving the waves kiss the shore
Without a high tide
Timelessly!
Fighting the demons that has infested
Inside my heart and mind
Burning their tails and horns to ignite
The very light, that I am to find
Hopefully!
I'll fade like ashes oneday
Blown bits of me in the atmosphere
Learning about me someday
You'd wish I was still here
Repentance!

ten days i will spend
asking for forgiveness
praying for redemption
getting down upon my bones
and whimpering at your feet.

please
kick me while i'm down.
to feel the snap of your toe
against my ribcage
is better than nothing at all.
I would rather be abused and forgotten

Dear Lord above
please hear my prayer,
The cries of your child
Let me know you are near

I'm weak in my flesh
Sin is so tempting
It dances on the edge
Ever calling and beckoning

Who would know?
It calls out to me,
Go ahead and enjoy yourself
There's no one here to see

But this is not a sin
That just involves me
Another is a part of this
Careful is what I must be

My spirit in a rage
begins to burn bright
It yells at me inside
Don't give in you must fight!

You are more than conquerors!
Does the Good book not say?
He's given everything you need
To come out the victor this day

Dear God I come before you
With tears in my eyes
I need your strength to win this one
Before all my hope dies

Please forgive me Dear Father
For the sins of my mind
Wash it out with your Holy Spirit
And let your Word in it bind

Lord we're trying so hard
We want you in our midst
Please help us focus on you
And your truths not to miss

We're weak oh God
We can't do this on our own
Give our spirits strength to stand
And sin not to condone

Amen

on your knees to pray
for purity, forgiveness

I been feeling the weakness,
I bury it deep inside.
But when I find myself all alone it says "I WILL NO LONGER HIDE".
Maybe I should say a prayer for myself,
not for me now but my near future in life,
but then again I can think some more and know that there will be the usual price.
First I lay down my pride and know this needs to come to end,
then I think back to all that I've done today and quit playing pretend.
I probably got my whole life ahead of me, but first I just leave my shame
and trust it all will be something different and never back to the same.
But **** that now cause I'm paralyzed.
Don't want to live but I'm scared to die.
At least without proper closure,
and perhaps to find a special one and get the special chances to hold her.
But I have no room in my heart for love letters,
and if she's out there then I'm just a second guesser.
And in my mind I'm all alone anyway.
Perhaps it's that if when someone's entered in I end up again somehow a castaway.
But here I am with the stress, along with the pressure, and  all the pain
And why my life puts all this on me I don't know forget just what it hopes to gain.
