Have Been Consumed

Have Been Consumed By so many of my sins, I have been consumed And seems like my whole life is totally doomed Forever in my sins will continue to languish While all around me is suffering and anguish. Every minute and moment I am mortified With me all of my sins, they have died And no matter what I think or ever know Around with me my sins will always go. Without God, I continually tried everything And no comfort to myself could I ever bring Why was it He who I would never accept? So deep inside me all my sins have slept. Hell is only place having a home for me Never from my sins will I ever be set free See me as an example of what sins can do Will ruin whole life when they take over you.

To stop sinning, where should I start; Just pretend that I am playing the part Or always give God all of the credit He is even willing your poems to edit. What a great job God an always do Many catastrophes bring you through And even a poet laureate be one day So writing schedule hould continue to stay.

The ideal of a greater determination repentance (is repent and sin no more). I enjoyed this reading of poetry James. Good verse, flow, and tone. Verlena
