I falter stumble break myself against my own idiocy carnality and humanity (another drink after another drink and another and then I am raped by a void that I welcome in for some unknown reason) the night was cool and I let you in though there was no light in my mind let my hands fall to my side (faith was devoured quietly sinisterly under the cover of the stars while shame crept closer to consume what was left of the man now a boy, then left to offer apologies to an Angel floating listlessly on the ocean's turbulent surface) you took what I didn't want to give but guilt remains with me drowning me in the truth of what I have done (i am sorry) and sometimes I think that I am undeserving of the embrace of Her arms the warmth of Her smile or the light of Her words (i am just a man) So what are you thinking fiery heart have you condemned me as you should (as I have myself) or is there reason for me to rise up and leave this cave to offer these remaining shards as penance for my sins (A promise to give you all that I am or at least what is left) |
