Feeling Guilty is a Waste!
Feeling Guilty is a Waste!
Gary Shulman
June 24, 2021
Guilt is created
by minds in turmoil
by devices at play
that make your blood boil
but never healthy
and never beneficial
so let me tell you something
and make it official
Let go of that emotion
created by your brain
you deserve some kindness
and that isn't being vain
So let those who love you
Do something oh so nice
Open your heart to getting help
Or you’ll surely pay the price!
About this poem
Guilt serves very little positive purpose and my poem just emphasizes that.
