Disrobing Ego

I have many questions for Him,

How will I know if I am good?

I know when I have been bad
And yet I am still granted soft wishes
Like laughs with lovers
And goosebumps from songs

The present remains
When I think I've been good,
So how will I know?

Perhaps begging the question is the answer itself

That is what I will pray for.
