The
Inner Guilt
It
gnaws on my conscience
Like
a cat on its prey
It
pounces on me when
It
sees brightness befalling my day
I feel like a child
Terrified of this terrible sea
It
blocks my sun, dulls my mood
It
never seems to flee
It
creates big hoes in the ground
At
every step, I seem to fall
Nobody seems to see me there
No answer to my helpless calls.
But
now
The
holes are getting deeper
They
are draining me of my power
How I wish each morning this would end
With
every cleansing shower
But
the guilt doesn’t get washed away
All
I did was go astray
Conscience
Knocks at my Door
I’ve
seen the ruin I faced
Everytime
a new dream came
I’ve
seen my fantasies crumple
Unapproved
by my parents
I’ve
been familiar with fear
Whenever
an idea appealed to me
I’ve
seen reality shake my dreams
So
hard that it broke them
I
know what it feels
When
you are hopeless in the universe
And
yet
Whenever I accused people around me
Whenever I desired to feel pleasures
Whenever
I’ve tried to run from reality
I’ve
known what guilt feels like
