Seven For Chaos and Disorder-- Penance

While the havoc of this cold January night Grinds like fractured pieces and shards in my bosom -- My own penance still remains with a transgression Forgotten not-- when my being righteous made you stray-- Yet, your grace to understand my intent humbles me Taking the warm path of forgiveness, this mercy Which enables us to reach out through serenity’s behest.
