I am a sinner
I have done things
that I’m not proud of
Things that make me
shudder even as I think of it now
I wish I can turn back
time and make a different choice
But I can’t
All I can do is live
with my regrets
My shame
I want to do better,
be better
But my demons are ever
lurking at the edges of my thoughts
Waiting for me to let
down my guard
To pounce and devour
me whole
I am so, so tired
Please
Take this burden away
from me
Let me have a moment
of peace
An eternity of peace
Please
I don’t deserve peace
I deserve punishment
For my sins
For the wages of sin
is death
Father, if I can be
saved, please save me
Save me
Please
