The Enemy and the Inner Me

I.
If I had the guts to tell You how I feel I would say I gotta stay cause heaven holds no earthly resolution for me.  The untainted can't heal the hurt that dwells within--
bound to this sinful flesh, are regrets bigger than me;
thoughts that have shaped me--
actions, senseless, they birthed me and mold my being while God seeps through the cracked character of my broken spirit;
heaven can't fix this me...

II.
I know it's just a feeling, but those are real--valid, right?
Even if only for a moment, these weightless and unsubstantial intangibilities are so heavy;
They bind me--
Me and my happy...

III.
Eternity--in glory at that,
should bring me peace of mind
but I feel empty
I feel worn and disgusted with myself
for allowing humanity,
to get the best of me...
