Choked By Guilt

She opened her eyes again
Hoping to see it sane
Well, it was anything but that
She gloomed as it's scarring words spat

Every time, she choked to speak
Not this time as she wanted to wreak
The creature was aghast
Oh! It wailed and wailed and wailed as she gasped

She choked her voice forever
As she drowned in her guilt further
Oh, the creature scarred and scarred her more with the voice she lost
But she bloomed flowers with the scars she got
