Intentions once golden lay lost in the clutter hidden from the world by the walls your hands have made. To look like the saviour was your only dream but now the one you call saviour disowns your very deeds. The blood that purged once horrid soul is now so thin it is barely seen For it is diluted with your "holy" work and deeds and laws you have made to fill the void in once sacred writ Your works and laws are all you have for your consuming fire is quenched and is now cold and dead. You could have drunk from Canaan's sweet springs but you have chosen instead to drink from the harlot of indiference's shriveled breasts! |

WOW! Well done! Well done, indeed. WOW! Live for love. Without love, you don't live. |

this is very powerful, I love the intent, that what we can have we so often give up, until it's to late, how is is that sometimes no matter how hard we try to do our best, it's never our best. |
