My River of Tears

Imprisioned deep inside is the existing power of guilt,
unworkable to disregard, the power has now built.

I feel no shamelessness to relinquish this unwanted strength, 
as its been my chaperon for its unwanted length.

A Shadow of displeasure hauls over me like a dismal cloud, 
corrupting my perception and leaving me far from proud.

Lacking the vision of that diminutive fragment of hope i once had clutched guared in my 
dream,
now all is bewildered in the course transition of the natural flow in the stream.
