I thank you for having forgiven me
Even though my thoughts have riven me
I do not deserve it I am so sure
Your heart must surely be pure
To again forgive my transgressions
My inappropriate impressions
A heart so beautiful have you truly
To forgive one as me so unduly
I owe you a big one this I know
For that you I struggle to show
That I am worthy of your forgiving
Without giving you any misgiving
I pray to my God to give me strength
To never again test your heart's length
Give me Lord strength to stand on my own
To show that at last I ave indeed grown
Strength to be the man I once was
To elicite with it all sorts of ahs
Strength to hold the beast at arms length
God please do give me the strength
The strength I need to live rightly
To keep my control ever so tightly
I pray you Lord to worthy make me
So deserving I may at last be
This my love I pray for thee
So that worthy of forgiveness I may be

" Thoughts have riven me" To be trapped in thoughts with regret is truly painful. We punish ourselves for too much. Your poetry speaks loud with honesty. Thank you Tony.
