    Because you, you know all my sins but you know of my heart too.

    This is the voice to those who can't/won't speak. The Lord saves all of His lost sheep. Stay strong

    Today, I take off the lipstick from my knees
    and let them kiss the floor with their
    naked lips that taste salty, like the
    thousand silent tears they
    have bathed in for days.

    ^^ That was just brilliant Yak! Pure Brilliance..

    because you,
    you know all my sins
    but you know of my heart too.

    ^^ Teared up at this point, so beautiful...

    Yaki, I'm not sure if this was just you writing an incredible poem or truly a cry out to God, but the best thing about crying out to God is the second you say forgive me, its done. He does forgive that easily and at the point only sees of your heart and not your since.....

    This is beautiful, I'm in love with it and its really an eye opener to a lot of us who feel convicted, to ask forgiveness of our sins as well.

    Love this and love you.

    I think one should never be ashamed to ask for forgiveness. This is uplifting and well written.

    Before Devil came, God drew near. Through the darkness, a bright Light shines. Wheat only ferments, for good brew. Against all odds, victory abounds. Pain is file that sharpens the mind. From tears of agony, gems rise. A broken heart, obtains God's grace. Forgiveness, awaits true regret. Be strong, for a good turn awaits.

    Comment from judging:

    The beauty about God is he loves you for all your strengths, weaknesses, good times and bad. His love is unending and it's truly an unconditional love. This is a beautifully touching cry out to God for the pain and wrongdoings, but the brilliance here is the second you ask, you receive. There is nothing you can do to earn forgiveness other than to simply ask. This poem makes me tear up everytime I read it, truly a beautifully written and heartfelt piece. The repetition of "won't you save me" throughout the entire piece just gives me chills. We strive for goodness, to be worthy, but we are human and make mistakes. Everyone does. But the strength here is asking for help - your path is so much easier when you let go to God and recognize it's really His path we must go down. I wish I could highlight this entire piece rather than just pieces.
