The Final Prayer
My faith erodes into disbelief
on the shore of my conscience
decimated by lust and desire
setting my soul on fire
Remorse seeping through my senses
Regret letting down my defenses
I'm a captive of my own duress
fading light in a dark abyss
still i pray for one last time
till my words begin to rhyme
yearn for all i have lost
and all that was once mine
as i lay plagued for tonight
i have to see through a different mind
