Guilt for moving on
Memories shattered
as time walks by
Distant as the stars with just a glimmer of the past
Guilt engulfs me for moving on
That I share happiness
So I should be damned
Pestilence be upon me
No more should I hold your picture
To think I deserve the right
Have I forsaken you
Please let this guilt move on
My love has not withered
To you I’m not lost
Just time seems too long
And I am alone
Forgive me I pray
That our time will still come
My memory awakened
Just like it was before
About this poem
What if the love of your life passed from this life. And after time you found someone to fill the loneliness. Started having good feelings again. How would you feel about moving on?
