The bottle of Guilt

Holds liquids in a gogo

Enough for what you need when you’re on the go.

Easy to carry, easier than the weight of guilt,

The contains, restores the appetency and quells it.

Tears flowing down, quenches the thirst, 

The dryness can be eased but not the pain from the hurt.


Tears flowing down, wets the cheeks, 


Lightens the heart, empties the contains in grief.


You carry it around until the contains are no more,


Just like the same guilt and heartsore. 


But you have to be careful with this too, 


Because sometimes this can also be made of glass, Just like your fragile heart.
