Guilt

The sad guilt eats me away everyday

My conscious is burning from me slowly

I can't eat or sleep, just watch in dismay

I cannot pretend to act as calmly

The guilt in a book goes from page to page

Compared to happiness it only takes one

I wither in frustration and outrage

Wanted power and now I've been outdone

I cannot escape my guilty conscious

Truth won't set me anywhere near freedom

I just feel utterly dead and lifeless

Have to end my life and not be fearsome

The rope is attached to my collar bone

The chair falls loudly and I die alone

Power

Power is the key to changes in you

Others start to notice that you defy

I never thought it would be you, but who knew?

And others can't trust because you imply

You stand deserted and mostly alone

And no one wants you for your selfless ways

This is the outcome and you must have known

Must deal with others and their betrays

You must be comforted with what is yours

Because soon you will be empty handed

You must listen to God and his implores

If you do well your heart will be mended

The past doesn't exist, just you and now

Power will never control, it's a vow
