The righteous side

I sit alone,
and meditate.
I think of kin,
I dare to hate.
I think of things,
that I have done.
I think of people,
we live among.

I think of deeds,
that shame my soul.
I think of sins,
I can’t control.
But as I embrace,
my inner peace, 
my true emotions,
begin to feast.

To God I pray,
with all regret,
and hope my sins,
I can forget.
In time of need,
He is my guide.
He is indeed,
the righteous side.
