I Know What I Did Was Wrong

What have I done?

All these troubles,

Flutter my mind,

I can’t help it,

What I’ve done to deserve this,

I know that it wasn’t the best thing,

Still, I don’t feel any better.

The innocence of the mind,

Shocks me with guilt,

My conscious keeps telling me that everything will be okay,

Okay, how?

I’ve done this horrendous crime,

And yet,

I feel nothing but guilt.

I know what I did was wrong,

I just can’t face the consequences.

And yet, when I look down at my perfection,

I see something scary.

All bloody and mangled,

Like he was asking for it to happen.

I know I lost control,

My sense of right and wrong,

I just pulled the trigger,

And he stopped moving.

My guilt over whelms me,

I know what I did,

It’s killing me right now.
