A Empty Promise

They speak lies and deal in pain. Ask for your confession . Yet torment the week and insane. Preaching to thoose who need hope. A dealer in disguise. So clever is his dope. Hands apon the innocent rules without reason lead to a perverts desire. Fancy robes burn just as fast within hells fire. A idea so good thought. A tombstone left is a marker. Trust in the father is what we were taught. And old trunk and a empty promise only take space. The soul when broken. Is just another empty damaged place.

I feel your emotion very solid Ken, the heart can't take the damage of empty promises for too long, so how do we protect ourselves from it?

The outer garment is not the proof of the personna inside, for sure Ken. I am sorry if you've been deceived in that way personally. But the truth is, there are some vile personna's which are derived of the vile mind out there, dress outwardly in sheep's garment. Sincerely, Moses
