guilt

its eating me alive

like a lion eating an antilope

ripping apart everything that used to be something

scratching me away like a dried up blood stain on a flat surface

please get me out of this prison filled with sorrow and guilt

screams are the only thing that fills my ears

tears are the only thing that fills my eyes

thoughts are the only thing that fills my mind

guilt is the only thing that fills my heart

please get my head out of the water

i already walk around like a chicken without its head

sorry that i didnt hear you

sorry that i was so blunt and brutal to you

sorry that i spilled my water

sorry that you didnt eat today

sorry that i didnt finish it on time

sorry for everything i did wrong
