Remorse

The remorse is furiously ravaging torment passes through my mind as I lay awake at night gathered in my guilt are the acts I have carried out yet I love what I did but my emotions are raw pleasured moments have led to my downfall This grief of my soul has edged away in times of lewdness This guilt i speak of is in me but i learn to control it I want to be punished but I still want my life releasing this pain will only end my life, is it pain i deserve I have so much goodness in me but this dreaded curse I have just will not dissolve I am a human of many sides taken in by beauty and feckless towards one's feelings I observe then seek my capabilities in such twisted rage grant me a way through to be better.. But don't forgive me I want to be so much yet I am cornered,trapped by my life's choices I could have been so much,doubting even my forgiveness would make me feel happy I hunger for a new start of a different life other than my own I wish to be someone else now, i wanted to change once taking the moment to understand why..why me..why them I have so much emotion that my eyes stay open at night maybe what I'm looking for is the night to end and my eyes to close

Such sadness in this write Carlton. We are only mere mortals with so many sides to ourselves. We all deserve forgiveness and move on from past errors of judgment. From mistakes we learn. I'm enjoying browsing through your poetry this morning.
