Forgive Me

by Carrotgirl   Apr 16, 2005


Heavy burden to carry
For it is shame
I possess no alibi
Guilty I’m to blame

See your Withering shadow
Crumpled muted shattered
Soul drifting away
Void of all that mattered

One chance to help
Yet I keep my distance
One chance lost forever
Condemned by my own silence

Pool of blood you lay
An end sudden and violent
Did you have to die
Now forever silent

Your family wept for you
The hurt and the despair
Please forgive me for I can’t
Guilt too hard to bear

I’m sorry Pat B….my biggest regret
