Mother

There are those who bring hope
To a world high on dope
Listen closely now
To your Mother of God you should bow
Honour her with a joyous shout
Her grace and love to flout
Switch to your favourite tune
In her heart there is room

Out

Your habits betray you
Ready to slay you
Right where you stand
Hanging by a strand

I watch it all slip away
Into the darkness and the fray
I hoped to have reached you
Your absence makes me blue

I am my own last resort
Sacrifices will cohort
No longer seeking you out
Only I am on my way out
