Shame Faced
Drowning in disgrace
Shame faced
Denying Christ again & again
Falling into sin
Carried by the wind
I send the pain below
Deep down into the undergrowth.
Like a moth attracted to a flame
Lame, I'm mangled with regret
I forfeit the race to become a mace
Disfiguring my face
I stand disgraced
Longing for a place
Finding God in my brokenness.
