[NaPoWriMo Poetry- 28] “Inside a pool of sorry”

I

dived inside

my pool of sorry

to find my treasure of reasons.

but could not breathe for too long,

my past choked me, I felt breathless and exhausted.

 

Over

these years,

every drop of sorry

has filled an ocean full of worry.

 

As

I swam

further inside

the light of virtues and purity

slowly disappeared, faded like the ink of memory.

 

All

I could see

was darkness of guilt.

The depth of my sorry is bottomless;

yet somehow, shallower than your forgiveness.
