Prisoner's Guilt
Enticement so divine it's secret I hide
Amid linens, other darken spaces
Welcoming hot passionate embraces
Only once, then never again; I always lie.
My heart refuses to waive control My pride
I try to keep looking upward, but to hell
I know so well I'll ride and the last farewell
Because of the deep secret I hide inside.
I blame myself not having the self-control
I'm told writing things down can change my life cries
Write detailed of compulsive, uncontrolled lies
I'll begin to adjust; I'm saying goodbye.
My heart yearns to write a poem I've always
Wanted to write with fulfillment and laughter
Wishing not to cry, desire of passion after
Compulsive addiction of running away-s.
I love you, a prisoner harming myself
I will make my tears dry never letting
Chocolate cacao touch my blush wetting
Lips and trust in my inner faith and self.
