Forgive Me, Father

I was born to be pure,obedient, and silent.I was taught that desire was sinand pain was proof of love.But you can only pray away the hungerfor so long before it turns into somethingelse.I left home to save myself from a manwho called sanctified cruelty love,and I met another who showed mewhat love really was,beautiful, brutal, and anything but holy.Now every choice I make tastes like sin,and every breath feels like confession.My name is Judah Levon.This is what salvation costs.
