You were always there,

Well, you never went anywhere,

A cheery hello,

A solemn goodbye,

An emotional conversation,

Exploring everywhere at once.

Your free life, my shackles,

Begging for corruption.

Acceptance I needed,

You provided.

I'd hurt you previously,

While you'd helped

Guilt masses constantly,

Poisonous as mercury.

For you see,

I'm deeply remorseful.

Without you

What would I be?
