I'Ve Made Mistakes

I've made mistakes, a few I think... I've caused my share of rain. But nothing out of scope or size To cause an Angel shame. I wish I had been perfect But such a life is not to be. Each blemish found... makes a sound Throughout eternity. So I live with my transgressions Hoping forgiveness lies ahead. Where I'll gladly return the favor As others mock me in my stead. Thus, perfection lies in shadows And out of reach for you and me. Let forgiveness be what binds us As we tread mortality. The End
