The Seeds Of Guilt

By Kadeeja Ruwaidah

My heart feels heavy,

Everything comes off messy.

It's weighing me down.

As the seeds of guilt are sown.

I feel so exhausted

My perception was distorted.

I want this to end,

But how can I contend?

I forced you into the dark

Born a state of anarch.

My mind, my body, my heart

I will each give you a part.

Will you smile for me

If I let you free?

Unclip your wings, I will

Sign your freedom with this quill.

I wish to learn,

About the weight of the things

I've done and once again,

Step back into the light, with you.
