On The Inside


Jesus, 
I have no love. 
I have no mercy. 
I have no humility. 
 
I am filled with 
Every kind of wickedness,
evil, greed, and depravity. 
 
Life is all 
about me 
and my own reality. 
 
And yet, 
on the outside 
I am a picture of morality. 
 
I try to save
myself by following 
every rule and legality. 
 
But to no avail 
for it is 
all futality. 
 
I can not 
save myself from
my dark immorality. 
 
Jesus can you 
save me from
mortality?
