for He hath put me in
horrendous situations in which
i was dropped naked and alone
to protect what was left
of my suffering soul

with words i pushed away
demons of adultry and thiverey
making myself free of those
burdens and preparing myself for
more offers of hatred...

with physical force i yielded
demons of drugs and alcohol
furthermore strengthening myself
for the fiascos to follow...

with all my heart and sould i
ran away from the blackness of
death which chewed at my wrists
for endless nights...

and these sins that almost
took my existence still
hover over me, left to linger
until the next battle arises
nonetheless, i won and i'm
stronger in the end.
