Bid Me Live

Unwelcome shades of scorn, I despise
On this woeful night I slowly fade
Spears that pierce, I feel betrayed
Dismayed, I sorrowfully close my eyes
Resigned to the tempter’s whim
I woefully ask, for him to forgive 
Yet I speak no whispers bid me live
Aught I lay waste to my grievous sins?
