Links, bonds, chains
Of memories
Woven into lies
Connect me to you
So hard to unbind
.
Everything I've done
Has taken
Far too many lives
Just because I was alone
If only I'd stayed alone
.
People I've never met, hurt
By my
Selfish acts
Bonded by a chain of memories
That is not wholly their own
.
Someday, forgive me
If you find this and recall
A simple drawing on my wall
Of those whose choices I erased
Wake them from their sleep
.
Maybe then I'll return
Unashamed
To the realm of light
Once the chain of memories
Releases me.
