Guilt
You have always left a light on for me.
Never once shutting the door in my face.
You shared my wounds and pain, hurt, fear and shame.
All through the years, I never once said thanks,
taking both you and your love for granted.
Time and again, I’ve hurt you with my words,
without sparing a thought for your feelings.
The day of reckoning finally came.
I fell from heaven into the abyss.
My life dangled on the brink of ruin.
With tear-filled eyes, you took the blame for me.
Words cannot express my deep sense of guilt.
Because of me, you are now suffering.
I am sorry. Please, will you forgive me?
