REPENTANCE

by Teresa Altman  
7/04/2007 / Poetry


Your touch I feel subsiding.
Your presence no longer near.
Tell me why the one I love
so faint I cannot hear.

Your silence is so deafening
I strive to hear your voice.
The once delightful melody
is now a silent noise.

I long to hear your laughter.
Your song I grieve today.
The loving sound of guidance
not here, just gone away.

My loneliness consumes me.
Repose within is spent.
Until your voice I hear again
my withered heart laments

What have I done to lose you?
My love, where did I fall?
I must have caused between us
transgressions after all.

I knew your love unblemished
no spot with you reside.
But loneliness now bruises
my heart, with sin I hide.

I heeded not your warning
with sin you cannot live.
Repentance is my only hope
will you, with love, forgive?

I must regain your presence
confess my hidden sin.
Wash clean my heart, with love's refrain
and bring your song back in.
