Guilt (Free verse) by Freethinker1602
Again and Again I hear something Saying to me I have no right to Live here this planet is not mine To dwell on I must leave swiftly They whisper of every fault I have Of every person that suffered by my hand The words they give me cause me agony I shriek and writhe wishing for an escape They see the troubled life I lead They know it causes me pain when reminded That I am a parasite and not fit for sanity They laugh at my pain and they bask in it They've shown me the truth that life Can't be fair to those that I've maimed They understand that I couldn't live alone There for they plague my conscious thought I wonder if they know I realize that I am wrong Do they know that I see my faults and cry Do they know I see those in pain and cower Do they know that all this is from my hand I know I see this and try to fix it I know I try to right the wrongs I wait for a nonexistent absolution I see your pain and know I can't forgive me All I need is to grasp for what I want Then in a blink it is taken away And again I suffer That's all I see it's all I'm willing to know
