There came a time
when the pleasures
of the world came to allure me
and i sought the guidance of her love
so good and pure
there came a time
when her personal charm and enticement
conquered everything i was
and would ever be
then i went my way unheeding
careless of the life i led
until one day i noticed
a silhouette
prints of her elbow
on my bed
she had been there
praying with me.
