You read your good book,
Say your prayers.
Try to lift me
From my despair.
You try to show me
The light within.
You try to save me
From my sins.
You say I’ll change.
Only time will tell.
But now I’ll raise some Cain,
I’ll raise some hell.
I’ll walk the fire
Dance in the rain,
I’ll drink the poison
Until the last drop remains.
Heaven knows I’m no angel.

You clutch your beads.
You’re saving grace.
But you have needs,
It’s on your face.
Let me be your savior.
I can heal.
Let me be the touch,
You want to feel.
And you will change,
And time will tell.
We’ll raise some Cain,
We’ll raise some hell,
Yes, you will change
It’s plain to see
It’s in your eyes
You’re just like me.
Heaven knows, you’re no angel.

Hmmmmmmm nicely written there, Ron.   A little bit of this, a little bit of that makes for a great poem once again.

Love this, Ron. This states  my feeling for "that" man, before he so rudely dumped me. We had such a good time being bad..
Damn! I am so bored with enforced good ...

Wynter...sorry to disappoint you...never said I was a saint either...lol...At least I'm honest.

Sandra...sometimes you have to bend the rules
just a little (sometimes a lot) don't make anyone a bad person

Lm...perfectly said...we're just human...a little of this...a little of that
