The Cost of Sins
The most religious among us sin,
whether we are aware or unaware,
God becomes offended by our disregard,
Although we may work hard for forgiveness
and God pays the price,
Human Beings hold on to grudges long
after God has whispered "Let Go",
and the cycle of penitence continues
until the matter has been beaten to death...
and there is no more satisfaction to be acquired.
