Condemnations (A Weight To Bear)

Condemnations (A Weight To Bear)

A Poem by Avale

I watched her fade, dissipate
With not one word left to say
I watched her death, sinking in
I held my breath, drinking in
I could spend a lifetime writing
Of how I let her down
I could spend a lifetime screaming
But never make a sound

At her grave I stand
Barely sure of who I am
With shame, bearing failure's brand
I am judged and condemned

I let her go, slip away
With not one word dared to say
I left her there cold, alone
I bore a soul not my own
I could spend a lifetime writing
Of how I let her down
I could spend a lifetime screaming
But never make a sound

At her grave I stand
Barely sure of who I am
With shame, bearing failure's brand
I am judged and condemned

I bear the weight of my deeds
And the sins born from those seeds
I bear the shame of the day
That I let her slip away

I held my breath, sinking in...

I could spend a lifetime writing
Of how I let her down
I could spend a lifetime screaming
But never make a sound

At her grave I stand
Barely sure of who I am
With shame, bearing failure's brand
I am judged and condemned

Ja
A heart wrenching read
Of how you must bleed
Forgiveness for deeds
Is what your heart needs

Thank you kindly for sharing
