Believe it or not
But guilt some thing she can feel
She can feel the sadness and the pain
And she does not like it
She wonders why does she feel guilty
Is it because a chance of happiness
Is off limits
And then she feels anger
Because everyone is saying
Don't go for it
It might hurt her
But God what about her
Had anyone looked at it that way
No, because they are all obsessed
With you not being hurt
And no she is not being selfish
Because she knows she will not
Pursue that one little sliver
Of happiness
Because she knows of the consequence
So she will forever stay unhappy
To protect you
And only then you will be happy
Now she is guilty again
For not having the courage
To let you know
