Fallen

“Fallen”

Have I fallen so far
that there is no redemption for my soul,
can I be forgiven?
I feel this life of sin has taken its toll.

Eyes once so full of life
now dead from the inside out,
heart once so full of love
now empty as the world without.

I have come so far
only to fall so short,
I have tried so hard
and never received any support.

I have screamed into the night
and never heard a reply,
I have cried till the tears turned red,
and wished that I could die.

I have held up to the pain
till I no longer had the will the breathe,
I have so longed for peace from my past
but in the end have always been left to grieve.

My sins and I we are one,
we shall always remain together
whether I find peace within them,
or remain their prisoner forever.
