I've definetly felt something like this before

I just love the honesty in this poem, I think it describes that painful place where we feel unworthy of anybody's love, or forgiveness, and so to ask God for it, seems impossible. It is like a cycle, because only by being honest with yourself, and accepting the truth, telling the truth and trusting God with it, can you truly begin to feel better.

I love how much emotion this poem holds, and how it is based only on that moment, only on this one topic and yet expresses so much. Although it was very from the heart, it was also filled with great words and metaphors, and held an interest for just a passion for religion. For something to hold onto, and to not give up on, be scared of, or hide from.

I love your title, and how it is standing, yet in the poem you use stained. I just find the two so connecting, because even though your heart has been stained, it is still standing and that is why it is so strong.

Brilliant poem.
Well done

Wow wonderful
