I watch as the sickness spreads engulfing every inch of this tormented soul. This is the end of me. My resistance wears down so paper thin and my mind runs rampant, uncontrolled. This is my own fault. The blame is no one’s but my own to claim. I brought this down on myself. suffering clings to my flesh. I brought this down on myself. Disease clings to my bones. This is my sin. Why won’t I let it go? Oh lord this is my sin. I am my greatest foe. Oh lord this is my sin. Why do I keep these vices, these teeth tear me apart? I am a dog, I am a pig, feasting on the vomit in my trough. My blood cries out for remedy but my feet won’t carry me to safety. My stomach releases everything within me. Why do I crave the impure? Replace this feeling in my gut with a burning in my heart. Never to deny your reign, never to remove your name from my lips. I gave my health and love for the wealth of sinners. Recklessly abandoned the truth for the embrace of liars. Oh lord I fell, dined in hell and I tasted the flames. Place the coals upon my lips, burn all the lies. My life is a train wreck. On the edge of disaster. Oh lord reach down your hands. Save what's left of me.
