Shame

Shame

A Poem by magenta24uk
"

A poem about shame and guilt.

"
I look at you and know I can never say,
What I did on that fateful day.
My past a fog of pain and shame.
Sometimes I forget, and my mind is at rest.
But, then it returns. The weight on my chest.
The guilt is suffocating.
Silently I drown.
But I can never say. 
Will the shame just go away?
I am slowly dying.
Can I ever be cleansed?
Or will I go to my grave with the guilt in my heart.
I know that this tears as both apart.
Shameful. Alone, I cry, 
and feel myself die.
