At the door step of eternity
I burn my last candles
Reflections of the past steps
I lost, tell a different story.
Checkmated and done
Each move damming
My delinquency
This: my game of life?
My faith I forgot
Myth’s I quoted away
Burning candles for nothing
To say who I be.
O! Lord forgive me
Knowingly I have sinned.
