I close my eyes at night.
Imagine a life without pain.
No longer shrouded in hatred.
No affection given in vain.
For I am made of love.
I say goodbye to fear.
~
I pray for absolution,
a state of utter freedom.
Forgiven for my transgressions.
I ask this of everyone.
For I am remorseful,
I say goodbye to sin.
~
I hope for a lover to find me.
In tune with all my doubts.
Patient with understanding.
Willing to work it out.
For I am made of desire,
I say goodbye to sabotage.
~
I dream to live in contentment.
Wishing for it to deliver me.
No more expecting to happen,
I endeavor to make it be.
For I am made of effort,
I say goodbye to sloth.
~
I envision a world of unity,
one without singularity.
People living for each other.
From egotism we are free.
For I am made of harmony,
I say goodbye to vanity.
