A martyr on a private chater

by Michael   Jun 2, 2015


I wasn't always so misled"
I believed in those who kept me fed
I trusted those who supplied my bed
And forgave when they where why I bled
So many years, A repeat occurrence
So many tears, fueled the furnace
But i was born in it, Naive and arrogant
The veils been lifted revealing a corrupt reflection
Conflicted, am i responsible or am I the victim
Regardless, i adapt to the surrounding carnage
To harness a position of authority and belonging
I've sacrificed morality, I'm sorry but I'm being honest
My conscious has darkened
From a sinful life I've took part in
I'm so sorry for being dishonest
I'm a liar, cheater, and abuser
making his confession
Dear Lord, please forgive me
As i lie here prepared for my Crucifixion
This is what had to happen
I pray I've not been forsaken.
