- SINFUL SAINT
- by Steven E. Paul
-
- I kneel before thee
- In sweet admiration--
- You have become my savior...
- You have delievered me from the hell
- that awaited my fall--
- The hell of solitude...
-
- How I pray unto thee for
- Deliverance
-
- Save me from the sin of
- Salvation...
-
- I beg of thee, redeem me with the
- Salvation of sin...
-
- How I long for you to bow down
- Once more
- To offer me a holy kiss--
- A sacred seal from your
- Contemptuous lips...
-
- Pray for me, heavenly figure,
- Pray that I may one day rise above
- My self-condemning morals
- and
- Walk in peace
- By your side...
