THE POURING OF OIL

I WAS SO LOST, 
MY LIFE WERE UTTER DARKNESS,
AND I NEVER KNEW IT..

BECAUSE MY WORLD, THIS DARKNESS,
WERE A PART OF MY VERY SOUL,
MY DARK AND CONDEMNED SOUL.

AND I BECAME A FIEN, AND A FRIEND,
TO THIS DARKNESS,
A CITIZEN OF THE DARK WEB.

MY SEXUAL DESIRES GREW STRONGER 
AS THE NIGHT JOURNEYED ON,
LUSTING AFTER NAKED ELUSIONS
BEYOND MY TOUCH.

LOOSING ALL CONTROL,
MY LIFE WERE COASTING TO THE FLAMES.

UNTIL THE HANDS OF LOVE RESCUED ME
AND POURED THE OIL OF GRACE
INTO MY MARRED SOUL.

NOW HERE I AM,
RECOVERING IN THE ARMS OF LOVE,
UN JUDGED..
BECAUSE WE ALL HAVE SINNED 
AND FALLEN SHORT OF PERFECTION.
