[bodytext] => So few are confident, But I am one of them. And at one time, I was Your servant. My life was there for You to manipulate. Still I give You my utmost respect and reverence, But my cold shoulder has been turned. You answered what You could, And I know that. You spoke to me, I listened. I still believe that You are the greatest, But you are strangely irrelevant When nihilism clouds my vision, And my heart remains vacant. It’s gone in such a short period of time; The divine life was sucked from my body and Left a pale skeleton draped with skin. One that treads continuously with so little purpose Yet remembers how much it cared And devoted its life to such a great cause. It’s been morphed into an unrecognizable doppelganger Full of endlessenss and nothingness. It indulgences in nothing more than the act of living And I can’t quite shake that memory of when you meant so much more.
