in prayer on this day's weary close
Pouring out its hurt and sorrow
seeking solace for tomorrow
To Him I ask for mighty strength
make my legs to stretch the length
Of this dark road I travel on
as I journey all alone
May I have Christ's swift protection
from evil's sinister reflection
May He stand close by my side
and spread His wings so I may hide
Revealing all the throbbing pain
giving God the breaking strain
Pleading for His mercy's grace
soul to soul--face to face
Confessing all my darkly sin
even that held deep within
Baring truths in my confessions
God will shoulder my transgressions
Begging for a Christ blood cleansing
pure white love my soul is sensing
Laying a shattered heart on the line
for Him to take and redesign
Exchanging bitter taste resentment
for a flavor so transcendent
Praying for a soulful peace
to please arrange this heart's release
Here I am my Dearest Lord
surrendering my perished sword
My heart to God I now expose
in prayer on this day's weary close

I love that! Your emotions are raw and true. Thank you for sharing this piece.

Loved the entire poem but did you mean to say 'darkly sin?'
It seemed odd on my tongue.
