stagnant guilt in her eyes

Her eyes carried a huge burden of guilt, A burden so heavy, felt like it was inbuilt, Everytime she wanted that little cry of dried locked in tears, She struggles to save herself from her own very fears, Her eyes once bright and shining, now dim with regret, Carrying the burden of repressed pain with underlying debt, How far can a sorry stretch? A single word covering up those mistakes that blew away someone's interest, The what ifs and maybes, a relentless nagging refrain, A rhythm of guilt and shame, that echoes through her brain, In the mirror's reflection, a haunted soul screams, Spirit from past regrets, with lingering fears, A constant reminder of the weight she cannot bear. With every blink, a memory flashes by, Making her yearn to disappear, to escape the weight of her every lie.
