Guilty Speech

Wake me up after the professional

Declares me dead.

Until then, leave me to rot in guilt,

The guilt of my deeds.

Let it feed on my marrow,

Until I run out of sorrow.

The stench of regret surrounding

My lifeless body.

Regret of being the cheat

They never thought me being of.

Let the sins I was committed to

Gulp down my flesh I gardened.

And while they do

Let me remind you

One day,

You will suffer too.

This is life,

No one walks free.
