Last Hour

In the last hour
You beg for mercy
No compassion can be shown to you
For you have dwindled your time 
Lacking introspection
You failed to acknowledge your transgressions 
With humble repentance
You failed to take your penance for your sinister sins
No one here to cloak them for you
You will have to take this road alone
Not much chance of loosing yourself
For it is wide and short
And full of other troubled souls who waited too late
