Struggle

The guilt grows stronger
with each mistake
causing a cycle of pain
Waiting to get caught
hoping and praying
 for it to come soon
To be able to let go
of all the guilt and shame
To prideful to ask for help
for it has gone on far to long
It eats away at my heart
piece be piece it is devored
Lord help me beat this 
Take it away
