Warm Ashes Valentine

I feast before I fast
I know the flesh won't last
But first the flame and then
The ash a bird's wings stirring
A table a clock a skull
I have placed myself upon
The altar of my sins
Drunk the wine and bread
And confessed your glory
As unworthy as I'm sorry
While you were always 
Just waiting here inside
Warmly to receive me
