I Plead My Case

A sinner's plea...

 

 

At the cross I plead my case

To You who willingly took my place

Heaven bids me now confess

The beast in me I now profess

And here I kneel before the throne

with sins I've done, secrets now known

all laid out for the Judge to see

Your verdict now awaiting me.

 

At the cross I plead my case

Fearing for my Master's face

I grieve for all the chances lost

Ignorance of a pleasure's cost

Excuses, reasons now prove so lame

Earthly glories fading to shame

Truth withheld and white lies told

Loving the bliss of Satan's hold.

 

At the cross I plead my case

Begging for a drop of grace

Sinful life I have renounced

Your endless love to be announced

Proclaim me guilty for justice's sake

Torment of hell I now shall take

But like to the thief before he died

Remember me where you reside.

 

Author's Note

I have shown my sentimental, sensual, and suicidal side. Here's a glimpse on the spiritual. :)

Anyway, I have nearly 350 RRs so I have to finish those before accepting RRs again. To be fair, I won't send my RRs in the meantime. This poem will be the last for now.

School break is over so I might not be as active in this site as before. Best wishes to all!! :)

But like to the thief before he died
Remember me where you reside.

It is the forgiveness and redemption that will be our guide. Wonderful write, Blue.

Faith is an intricate part of being human. The two flaws thay affect us most are believing someone else's faiyh (like parents) when it's not really your own or believing yours is the one true faith when history teaches us that there are many paths to God. Thank you for sharing your faith. :)

I do liked this one, since it was a psychological launch of the character, the spirit is the most ignored part of us,but when we come to times physicality cann't do any favour for us we turn backto our soles and spirits; and it is always late, alwyas..... what if tommorow you wake up dead, aren't there things you would like to do, like visiting someone, begging God for forgiveness, make amend for wrongdoings,etc....you don't thing about hpw to dress, where to go to party, how to get to college, what to do at the weekend, what to eat...etc......so this is spirit......we neglected it, and it got tired convince us to see it....thanks for sharing, it was very good, really good in everything....I hope you all the best in your personal life....best wishes.
