Sean Goes to Confession

Forgive me Father for I have sinned,

Please don’t speak, let me begin.

It has been years since I last confessed,

So this will be a doozy, that you have guessed.



My God and Father, what have I done,

I have cheated on my only one,

Now I will have to choose,

And either way, I lose.



My love never did anything wrong,

And we have been together for so long,

She is an angel and it is plain to see.

What the devil got into me?



This new one, seduced with her smile,

Then made love like a tigress in the wild.

She took me to heights I had never been before,

Giving me a glimpse of what’s in store.



Now my heart is torn between love and lust,

Or is it lust and love, I don’t know,

Choose I must,

But it will hurt so.



My love has won this bout,

It is she I can’t live without.

The other I must let go,

She was never mine, this I know.



She accepts my parting goodbye,

Then gets on with her life.

For a moment I had lived that dream,

Life on the edge, filled with steam.



I feel so guilty for this terrible sin,

I vow to God to never do it again.

I begged for his forgiveness on my knees,

A lesson learned, from this sin I am freed.



Now for the love of my life,

I will never again stray from my wife,

The emotional damage not worth the pain,

Never ever will it happen again.



Thank you father for listening,

I will be on my way,

My burden feels lifted,

Have a nice day.
