Looking up at the sky
to see the stars winking down
she sank
upon her knees
A gasp escaped from her mouth
a cry of pain,
a whimper of fear
As tears poured down her cheeks
Begging for forgiveness,
for mercy
but there was none
to be granted
She had wasted all those years
rejected the right path,
slept through life
forgotten her Creator
Now having opened her eyes
she realized her doings,
regretted her ways
as her heart pleaded
for forgiveness
she had been fooled
by the ways of life
and caught in the web
that the world spun
as her knees gave way,
she collapsed in the dust
her face turned towards the sky
the tears wet on her cheeks
Lying there
to be forever forgotten
forever rejected
