My Onus

Sometimes I surrender

Inebriation conceals this shame

A fear so omnipresent the knees tremble

Daylight will come again

The demon will resurface

It is in my reflection

This secret a load I haul

Constantly

If ever unveiled

Reproach inevitable

My peccability

So grotesque

This burden my companion

The accomplice of my permanent

Disguise

So sometimes I surrender

Inebriation shrouds my reality

For this guilt corrodes

And one day I will retreat

And then

Perish
