In the name of the Father (ManxMan) | the Wattys | The Wattpad Awards 2013

In the name of the Father ~ I commit to a stern prayer of love and devotion. Help me choose between duty for country and love for another man. Can my crooked virtues survive in a morally upright and straight world? Will I ever be truly happy? Lord, hear my prayers.

And of the Son ~ I pursue a wicked prayer of lust and anger. I need to forgive myself and emotionally open up to a closed world. Will I ever dream again and best the demons that haunt me in my sleep? Will I ever wake from my nightmares? Lord, hear my prayers.

And of the Holy Spirit ~ I appeal to an honest prayer of faith and resilience. I want to prove myself worthy of the love I am given. When will my tenacity bear good fruit? Will I ever be able to choose between the love I deserve and love for the greater good? Lord, hear my prayers.

This is the story of a Father, his Son, and the holy Man caught in between ~ Amen.
