Destroy My Strife

Set my world right
For it has never been
It's so far out of sight
Trapped in habitual sin

I want life. I want peace
Take the bitter away 
Destroy all my strife, cease
Give my pure love to ever stay

Truth lie within my bosom
All those omissions fade
Striving for that wisdom
No constant state of pain

Dear one, send me no rejection
Teach me of compassion
Lesson me in kindly sessions
Peace and harmony in fashion.
