[bodytext] => I gathered these one at a time.
A stone for each unfaithful act, a pebble for each time I turned away. Struggling just to keep my head above water with seven pounds of sin in my pockets pulling me deeper, taking me under. I felt light as air when we began. Pockets full of love and kisses made me feel like I could walk on water. Stretching out my arms wide, basking, for all the world to see my happiness. All the world is watching now. I want to strip it off, shed it all, bare myself to you. Let these stones drift to the bottom, leap out of the depths I have sunk to. Gasping, praying you won’t let me drown. Fill my pockets with love and kisses Once again. Forgive me.
