It takes a lot of nerve to admit to your sins
But facing everyone after they know the truth
That your heart has left you with feelings for
Someone other than the one who you were with
Giving into the passions that make you a sinner
Leaves you playing with desires that ignite fires
Of yearnings within the heart and spirit where
God only knows you’ve tried to remain repelled
By the evils that will find you out and force you
To admit to the wrongs that surface in the heart
Who desires more than a mere touch, but more
So very much passion that feels so inflamed it
Attracts the depths of the soul to grow tangled
Into the union of two who hold onto the needs
That prevent them from being absolutely honest
Without immorality or indulgence into any sin
Adultery is a wrong that discovers the sinner’s
Deepest thoughts and strengthens the ones
Who long to find the courage to let go of the
Dance of deception found out by the adulterers
It takes courage, though, to finally let it all go!
