Infinite sadness, eternal sorrow how I embrace thee for my sin
Into the shadowy darkness take me in
But before you take me away
My final words, you must let me say
In this life I've had my share of mistakes
For them I am chastised with the loss of my heart and my faith
But at least now I have no reason to hide
Every word I say I mean for I am on my way to die
There is no hope or joy in me, yet there is truth
The loss of morality, the dying of my innocent youth
I knew the consequences of my iniquity
I knew the consequences of my immorality
Those horrible transgressions
Have led to my confessions
In my absolute guilt
I must speak for so much is felt
And though hearts like mine are broken every day
Perhaps I can spare you the pain
Let not your heart love this world too much
Or it shall become black as mine is such
Indeed guard your heart
From that which would tear it apart
Invest your faculties in love
For in it lies divinity from above
Let your heart be happy knowing it is good and right
That in all the darkness, you found the light
That in a place where all is wrong
You did what was right all along
Let righteousness justify you
So that you are blamless in all that you do
How I wish I could do the right things now
But life seems not to allow
All i can hope for is forgiveness
That is all that I can ask- all that i can wish
This is the burden of the culpable
That all of life should become drab and dull
I should have trusted that righteousness would be my salvation
But my desires made me impatient
And now I am damned
By my own decisions- By my own hand
Share not the same fate as I
Love not the darkness in the night
Forever I am filled with my regrets
They make me beg for death
Life for the guilty becomes a painful task
Where all is lost and forgiveness is all that I can ask
And when I am alone my eyes are always filled with tears
Hope is gone and there is a realization of all my fears
Why should anyone want to live this way
Afraid of the sadness that comes every day
Follow your heart to what is good
Do what a noble heart would
The dignity of he who stands alone for what is right
Superceeds all of evil and hatred in his sight
Faith in goodness- love for purity
Shame in wickedness- punishment for the guilty
How I hold myself in contempt
It is over- this is the end
Remember follow your heart to that which is true
Trust that goodness and truth shall save you
Try not to satisfy your wicked desires and needs
Lest you die in life just like me...

Oh my friend who lives with so many regrets inside who has been rejected and worn down and beaten inside his soul...your pain is so loud in this poem and the hurt you bring upon yourself is even heavier than that which you carry to begin with....i live life not to have any regrets....i dont want to be in my rocking chair when im old saying i wish i had done this or that i regret doing this or that...i try and do all things in my life from my heart and soul, and many times all to often this very way of living is what hurts me the most but at least i know i gave my all in life and i went forward in all i knew how to with all my heart and soul and i was not afraid to do so and in the end i was proud of who i am because i can still look at myself in the mirror and know that i gave my all to everything i needed and wanted to give it to....my friend don't be so down and hard on yourself, trust in your heart and beleive in yourself....and thank you for writing such beautiful poetry from your heart, it's so beautiful and touching ....very heartfelt...and full of love...

Wow, this was amzing. I enjoyed it a lot. I know I will sound like a hypocrite, but you need to believe in yourself to many ppl will be disapointed no matter what u do anyway. Wow this was filled with so much emotion and hurt. This was very poetic it just seemed to flow. The rhymes were not forced they just flowed. Wow this was so amazing. Realize that Jesus does love you and if no one seems to care remember that I do... My e-mail address is fartingson@hotmail.com. If u ever want to talk reach me there...
Keep yer chin up,
