My Fault

• Description: I've been in some tricky situations and blamed for them. This is just my emphasis on how much it hurts to be told if you did something different, you wouldn't have gotten hurt.

My mind echoes in wake and sleep,
Saying it is all my fault-
Everything that ever happened to me.
Run.
Why did I not run?
Hide.
I listened when he said to lie.

Coaxed into this darkness,
It is my own fault.
No, I do not have a witness.
Time.
Jail me for wasting time.
Chains.
Chain me up inside.

I could have escaped.
I could have screamed.
No, I just lay still in my grave.
Guilt.
Everyday my skeletons scare me.
Regret.
Regret for knowing it is my fault.
