God, today I shall change,
and approach my faith with a stronger need.
I know I'm not perfect, not in one single way,
But, still, you made me and proclaimed, “That's OK.”
I now profess my ever growing love,
I will try to make it last.
Even though some days it shall falter,
please keep in mind it's as fragile as glass.
I know I have checked people that I shouldn’t have checked.
I know my patience has bent over the years, yes it's far from erect.
I know that when I should have given kindness, there was hate.
I know if I was Eve, the apple I would have ate.
I am aware of all my sins,
All those lies that I have told and never cease to tell.
That sunk me into evils sinister, fiery well
I know I forgot you for so, so long,
my weaknesses were just so, so strong!
Please forgive my misdeeds
it was all against your moral creed;
and take my one last prayer, my one last cry,
and sing me to sleep with your forgiveness as my lullaby.

I wrote this to support all those who are struggling with their religion. I have always felt that if you have someone root you on, it gets alot easier.
