Regret and anger at yourself <br />Haunting you in your sleep <br />Your heart is pounding <br />And anxiety is filling your ears <br /> <br />You look up and pray <br />That you could have the chance <br />To travel through time <br />And erase your mistakes <br /> <br />You feel like a character <br />Who has performed a terrible crime <br /> <br />You keep hearing the same voices <br />Over and over again <br />As if a broken record <br />Were playing in your head <br /> <br />The panicking is driving you up the wall <br />Like a thief escaping from jail <br /> <br />Lives somewhere, where nobody knows <br />But everyone is aware they must hide <br />For it seems to appear out of nowhere <br />Like a distant cloud, high up in the sky <br /> <br />He creeps up on you <br />And becomes a horror to your dreams <br />Causing a painful sensation <br />All throughout your skin and bones<br /><br />Thomas Bolen<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/guilt-36/
