Guilt

by Rona   Dec 30, 2004


It's hard to say, "I'm sorry. I put you in so much pain."
And now it seems too hard to ask for forgiveness,
But don't leave me the blame.
You once did the same.

I`m tortured in this guilt.
Have you no mercy?
I don't know why this is killing me,
When it's you who put me through this.

I'm left with that mark of hatred and despair.
What have I done to deserve such hapless defeat.
Begging for mercy is not what I do.
This wasn't my fault,
Stop blaming me for your own mistakes

This is your own doing,
It's you who put me up to this.
My once bright face turned cold and pale.
My once black hair turned white and gray.
Buried deep down in cold earth,
Waiting for my re-birth.
You once took the knife,
Telling me I can't be in your life.

Tortured in this guilt..
This guilt that slowly devours me,
But it was never I who caused such calamity.

Once you have realized what you have done,
You blamed me for the pain I put you through,
Blamed me for the bloodshed that you've caused.
I never thought it would end like this.
You took your own life,
`Cause you blamed yourself.
You blamed yourself,
For taking mine.
