Culprit

I wait here,

In the midst of nothing;

Waiting for spurs of brightness,

That’s nowhere to be seen.

Emptiness fills the heart with grief and uncertainty,

I have tickled the truth and lie here as casualty.

Although I feel like a culprit, waiting to be forgiven,

But deep down I know, you shouldn’t be hurt is all I meant.
