Regret

How could this happen to me...
I made a mistake 
I tried to have that which did not belong to me
I shut away the voice that spoke from within
A life that is lived in darkness would soon be brought to light
Shame stood before me
I was overwhelmed with misery
I searched for a way out
There it was
The voice that spoke to me once before...
