Skeleton Key To The Cemetery

when you born,
your body came to rest in a cradle of thorns
a saviors faith
traced in a childs face
even though he hasn’t
spoken to god today
when you born, baptized to be on your own
now your gone for the gain of others
you’ve fallen out of grace with humanity
three strikes against your path to divinity
admit to yourself? where do you begin
everything and everything over again
it started at birth where your future died first
followed by your penchant for self worth
out of touch, out of favor with god
out of time with everything that you love
you’ve fallen out of grace with humanity
three strikes against your path to divinity
lie, cheat and steal
sign of the cross to help you heal
but will it
help you
heal?
