Why You Have Hardened My Soul

The feeling of GUILT is a nagging sore sport in your tummy.  Guilt is friends with NERVOUSNESS and SCAREDNESS.  They party together and make you want to puke.

I no longer feel that feeling because of you.  YOU still feel guilty and that's FABULOUS.  You probably stole my guilt and took it so you remember more often that you CARE and have feelings inside that aren't all hardened up like lumps of coal in your tummy like mine are.  Guilt keeps you real brotha.

TEARS cleanse one's inner self.  The are a physical component of inner strife.  I have so much strife floating around inside but it can't be recognized and it can't get outta me because i think when I wasn't looking you stole my tears.  You'll probably boil them up and cook eggs in it or something else gross.

SO, I sit here and know my guilts missing and feel a little alright about the situation.  Then I realize I should have MOUNTAINS of guilt inside and I don't and there's something fishy about that.

And I try to cry but I can't.
