Confession, a Woman's Dilemma
Father, I must unburden my soul, I must confess,
For my soul is in great distress.
Forgive me Father, for I have sinned,
I love a married man way more than a friend.
I know this sin is worthy of Hell,
Yet, I had no warning before I fell.
All this time I have tried to forget,
The day we met.
I have tried and failed,
To forget his intoxicating smell.
I have tried so very hard,
To put up an impenetrable guard.
I failed once again,
And now must confess my sin.
I must get this off my chest,
For, even now I am unable to rest.
Every time I close my eyes,
I see his face and my soul cries.
I hear his voice,
For I fear I have no choice...
I fear I must love him for all time,
Without reason and without rhyme.
I fear I must give my heart to him,
Even though every time he is near my eyes fill to the brim.
I fear my soul is unable to be redeemed,
For he is every dream I have ever dreamed.
Forgive me Father, for I have sinned,
And I fear I will do it again and again.
For I love a man with all my heart,
Even if that isn't smart.
I fear he is the only man,
I will ever love again.
Forgive me Father, for I have sinned,
I'm sorry that I'm not sorry, and if I must own my sin,
I will do it again and again...
Amen!
