Breathing in I compose myself
I cannot afford to lose myself
I need to dispose of this regret
Before I drown in self pity
In this endless abyss

How can a simple mistake cause such regret
It causes heart ache
And unrest

I cannot control these untamable emotions
As they overflow the gates of my soul
Completely and utterly out if my control

Flowing down in endless slides
Are the tears I have cried
Every night
Yet do not account for
The pain inside

Leaving me crumbled at the foot of trouble
Unable to withstand the force of the blow
Until I realize hot to end the pain

I am the cause of the pain
Unable to relinquish my self blame
It is all over
No way to recover
Those precious moments

The past is the past
And every passing second
is a chance to redeem
What seemed as an irreparable thing
But now as the storm cloud of guilt passes over
I can sever all the remaining doubts
That the path of light is much better than the path without

So just remember the next time you suffer
From a terrorizing tower of blame
Remember that every path has tears that fall
But when the pain clears
And the rain disappears
A beautiful rainbow stands in it's place
