Guilty

Passed down to every generation is 

The fear to be at fault. 

Being looked down upon is made to feel like sitting with garbage. 

He feared to be at fault 

As he feared to lose her 

He never accepted himself "guilty" As he was "the man".

He raised his voice to cover the sound of guilt

He failed to hear his love scream for her love. 

She let him be and 

Held his hand as

Their buds were looking for them.
