I am torn between two worlds,
Of loving and hating the sins I commit,
For in one moment, I am consumed by desire,
And in the next, I am filled with regret.
My heart is pulled in opposite directions,
Towards the light and towards the dark,
I know the path I am on is wrong,
But I cannot seem to change my mark.
My love for sin is like a flame,
That burns within me bright and hot,
But then it fades into the night,
Leaving behind only a vacant spot.
The guilt and shame I feel inside,
Is like a heavy burden on my back,
And though I try to run away,
It always seems to track.
I long for peace within my soul,
To break the chains that hold me down,
To find a way to love myself,
And let the light and love surround.
