Guilt

Guilt is like a never-ending monologue,

But you're talking to yourself.

Guilt is like a book of blank pages,

Silent on the shelf.

Guilt is like a stream of tears,

Falling silently down your face.

But when someone gets too close,

They tend to vanish without a trace.

Guilt is like a silent shame,

It plagues your very soul.

Waiting like an hourglass, 

It slowly takes its toll.

Guilt is like a signature,

Neatly written in ink. 

Signing yourself up for pain, 

Before you even think.
