Culpabilité – The feeling of guilt

A chasm so deep

No end in sight

With a pool called Regret

Feeding the bloom of Fright

Amongst the abyss

Lurks a demon, black as night

Drinking from Regret

Feeding on Fright

It claws the walls

Reaching for the light

When all is agleam

Over will be Guilt’s plight
