Sinner Sinner

Sinner sinner broken man wakes up every hour. Forgiveness in the silence sought, his serenity his power. While all may see a stoic face he is filled with cracks. Poison seeping to his heart until it's worthless black. Fighting every movement made, up river in a storm. Hard lights casting, shadows long, recognize the form. Long forgotten, never lost, just buried down below. A fire building in his heart a love begins to show. A peace, a calm, place to belong; Welcome one and all. A heavy burden lifted up, until he feels the fall. Alarm begins to blare so loud, in darkness wake again. Only in dreams he'll find relief, in life you never win.
