Stain

12 1 2
                                    

A string of regrets and a plethora of apologies lie in my heart

Words get stuck in my throat but desperate eyes beg for forgiveness

I'm the stain of disappointment on the canvas of your perfect life

So I try to veil the blotch by painting over it with remorseful strokes

But I only manage to soil it more when my body quivers with tears of desolation

Because I am the stain you cannot conceal and I am the regret you cannot rid of
