How He Deals with Guilt

Your body cannot carry

All the guilt that you feel

 

TIP: tell her, offload onto her

All of your worries and your sorrows and your pain

Onto her

 

It is not your fault,

Tell her she is irresistible and exciting

And her very existence fills you with guilt

 

And when you have done, when she carries all of your pain

So heavy that she can barely breathe

When she merges it into her bones and her soul

So it cannot come back to you

When she soaks up every mundane detail of your life and believes it will help

Each waking minute

And when you are her air

You trick her into thinking she has never been so strong

And powerful

Walk away

It is not your fault

Now you are strong, cleansed and free of guilt.

Your weaknesses rest in her.
