I have fallen from grace,
a grace I never knew I had,
one I will now forever miss.
from the warmth of it to the nothing.
Cold and shadows,
Lies and hurt.
It haunts in my eyes.
Strangers can now see the pain.
Want to smother it.
Make it go away.
Send me to church.
None of it can return my grace.
For I lack the courage to stand,
and take it back.
