Embrace – Written Summer 2017

Tonight I received an embrace
A large and lavish embrace
A grand man large by many measure
One might say a fallen man
A reduced and sinful man 
Looking for forgiveness and acceptance 
It was a strong and uncomfortable embrace 
I was not ready to forgive

Tonight I received an embrace 
A quick and passive embrace
From a man grand in my esteem
You may call a mentor or father
A friend, now hurt, by my sin
I was looking for forgiveness and acceptance 
But it was an uncomfortable confirmation 
He was not ready to forgive.
