Burden of Guilt

Burden of Guilt

Some DECISIONS linger long past when they're made
Some REGRETS haunt you 'til you're covered in the grave
For each of us, GRIEF is personal and private
When consumed with GUILT, life is stale and quiet
Love may conquer all but, not when it's muted by SHAME
Death is never easy but, it doesn't end the PAIN
Those left behind try to live with the memories
Yet, some choices remain vivid reminders; no tears can ease

Some decisions, time can not heal
Some regrets, you must always feel
Life is a damning, draining road of mistakes
A BURDEN OF GUILT only leads to self-hate
