the guilt of the lie
-the one that choked her to death,
the guilt of the death
-the one that she could have stopped
the guilt of the choice
-the one that haunted her dreams
the guilt of the stutter
-the one that gave them away
the guilt of the relationship
-the one that went against friendship
the guilt of the note
-the one that shattered a heart
the guilt that flooded her
-that took her life
-that took her happiness
-that took her friendship

the guilt that she was submerged in
that she was drowning in
was too much for her to bare.
she needed someone.
she
needed
help.
