This Heavy Guilt

This heavy guilt weighing on me, Like too many leaves on a little tree Covered in rain from a sky that poured I hurt a person who I adored If I could have just let things be, Then maybe he could now run free Instead he stands numb with a silent plea My actions, once sweet, are now deplored This heavy guilt He and I, once we Now like locks without a key The distance so great we could never ford But his name still on my heart is scored I wonder if the world can see This heavy guilt
