Guilty


When you look at me,

I look away.

I feel guilty today.

You smile at me,

I don't smile back.

I feel guilty today.

You hug me,

I'm as stiff as a board.

I feel guilty today.

You think of me,

I got someone else on my mind.

I feel guilty today.

You’ve devoted to me all your time,

I'm always gone; out of sight.

I feel guilty today.

You try to make plans,

I'm never around.

I feel guilty today.

You try to cheer me up when I'm down,

I pour my heart out to someone else.

I feel guilty today.
