This poem could be a prayer or hymn. We will always be in a cycle of asking God for forgiveness. No one is perfect. But He will always forgive you if you ask Him.

As I read, I could feel the sincere, faithful honesty and emotion behind each word of your poetic prayer. It demonstrates a straightforward humility asking for God's forgiveness and never ending mercy. I wish you the best in the contest.

This was me all day last Saturday. It was Yom Kippur, the highest Jewish HolyDay, and it was spent repenting in a very similar way as you've written here. I like the photo you chose to accentuate your beautiful poem. Good luck to you in the My Faith Poetry contest. xoxo

Your poem reads like it is written by a sinner saved by grace. It reads as a poem/prayer seeking forgiveness. And of course, if we are faithful in confessing our sins, the Lord is faithful in forgiving them. Good luck in the contest.
Robert.

A beautiful poem from someone who sounds like they've been lost and are returning to God and His promises. An excellent entry for the My Faith poetry contest.

This plea for forgiveness and mercy for previous misdeeds shows a remorseful soul who had lost its way. Atonement is cleansing, which this person desperately seeks.
