I Sinned Father

I SINNED FATHER
I coveted that that is not mine
I longed for that that I can’t get
I craved for one out of my reach
I sought to take that was never meant for me
I sought to win a queen’s heart
Yet am lowly...

I longed to touch nobility
Yet she is out of my league
I sinned father
But hold it not against me
She is an angel among mortals
Pardon me father,
Love knows no boundaries.

Welcome, Phil. The pain we go through for admiring those out of our league.
