My Immortal Forgiveness

===============================

I made Earth and then let spill
miracles in every spot,
wanting you should want for naught

and when I'd brought light to fill
up the world, I worked until
in my image, you were wrought

Then, by cursed afterthought,
I bestowed you with free will
and with life and death to give,
let you choose how each would go

Now Your death and how you live
are but what your choices show
Still, my Children, I forgive
all because I love you so

===============================
