Extra time

Extra time

A Poem by SleeplessVolcano

I need a grace card
To clear this conscience
Where I sit below the line
The floor opened up
And swallowed me whole
My blackboard
Is filled from left to right
Top to bottom
With my sins
Come wipe me clean
Come take away my chalk
Take me away to a place
Where I will not fall again


My grace transcends
Your ability to sin -
It is always there.
But you are just sorry
For being caught out -
Transcend above human sorrow,
To godly remorse, and we could talk.
Embrace temptation,
Do not yield to it.
Resist damnation,
Be shielded through it,
Considering it all joy,
These trials, remember?
Do not despise your ability
To sin
I will not take it away -
You have it
To remind you
That you need me
Every day.
