Portrait

Every day a decision must be made

How to live

How to prepare for death

Sacred love

Profane lusts

 

My mind swirls as I pray

What to do

What to do

 

At times I feel lost

Other times I feel found

Rust on the halo

Pavement under the glory

 

Thoughts- keep in check

Actions- keep in check

The struggles in life are many

Its not easy being strong

One must do what one must do

profane lusts! Great words tied together there. I think this poem is by far my favorite of yours, because I relate to it ... everyone can relate to this.
