Guilt



Oh, dark mirror shadow night
Take me to the reflection of shining light
Not leave me to falling from a greater height
And lift me up with your uplifting spirit
Tell me when life is coming to a penalty
For not too late to receive
To lead me with own self-conscious right
Do not crucify me to death
For my wrong doing is a learning lesson
With shed of tears and guilt of regret
Allow for my remorse to set free
Forgive me for pardon sake
I promise that I must never
Walk through the same path
As long as I stall live
Grant me for one wish to compensate
To live life to the fullest
To be the best that I could possibly be
For an eternal gratitude that I must I inherit
To always ponder before taking a leap
And be considerate of others
For the consequence that it must take
