Forgive Me, Father. Scars and Promises Duet, #2

I was born to be pure, obedient, and silent. I was taught that desire was sinand pain was proof of love. But you can only pray away the hungerfor so long before it turns into somethingelse. I left home to save myself from a manwho called sanctified cruelty love, and I met another who showed mewhat love really was, beautiful, brutal, and anything but holy. Now every choice I make tastes like sin, and every breath feels like confession.
My name is Judah Levon. This is what salvation costs.
