I frighten myself

Je m'effraye

I frighten myself!
This week's fear
is that
I have not resolved
my youth.
The guilt I should have
left behind
on the beds of private concupiscence
seems ever with me as if I was sixteen.
The shame I have
is that I have not made
proper decisions
about my life.
that professing faith
I have been
faithless
that claiming love
I have been so often
loveless

it should be better
(could be worse)
I frighten myself!
