Redemption
Psyche perilously perched in purgatory
Tragically trapped in the middle
Swimming through a swamp of suffering
Perplexed trying to solve life’s riddle
Sinful soul of a sinner
Peacefully put to rest
Eyes clear after cleansing
Purge purified my inner protest
Reluctantly walked into the fire
Now ready to put agony to an end
Gradually rising from the ashes
As my spirit no longer condemned
Finally found forgiveness
Shackles on my mind set free
Escaped eternal torment
Marching along to a new decree
