Confession

There is pressure in my innermost heart,
As the voice deep within points fingers on me,
That memories deluge my secret act,
For my heart is heavy, I must admit.

The trust had been abused 
As the turpitude broke the wall of trust
That lit gloomy of the trust before my homily 
For my heart is heavy, I must admit.

There is fog of doubt and I regret 
As the guilt sunk me in the pool of shame 
That, I have nothing to pretend
For my heart is heavy, I must admit.

The broken egotism cannot be amended,
As within out rain tears from the eyes of my heart,
That my empty apology cannot build the walls of confidence,
For my heart is heavy, I must admit.

Bury me in the grave of forgiveness,
As a dead man with other human race,
That, the face of the earth will forget about me,
For my heart is heavy, I must admit.

But my mouth speaks just a word
Bury me in the grave of forgiveness.
