how can i tell you what i did
how can i say it out loud
when it feels like a sin
i let another man touch me
and all i felt was a betrayal to you
i let another man lay his hands upon me
it made me feel like such a whore
knew what i was doing
thought i needed it so
knew what i was doing
perhaps i was lying to myself
i needed to feel
i needed to scream
i needed to know
what condition i was in
as i throw myself upon your altar
looking for absolution
am i worth your forgiveness
can you bathe the dirt i feel from my skin
or should the forgiveness come from within me
hear my name
take a good look
this could be the day
hold my hand
lie beside me
i just need to say

    You write some amazing stuff cate, I often want to reply but feel like I would be interupting in the moment, do you write based on things that have happened at some point? or do you put yourself in to the position of a character and a situation or predicument?
    Can not be arsed with life no more.
