Guilty I am
Indeed, I am guilty
But not of what I am blamed.

Guilty I am
Of having believed.
Of having fathomed I had beside me
A warrior who would fight by my side.

Guilty I am
Of having battled
Against the signs of neglect
Boredom and rejection.

Guilty I am
Of having believed in the depths of sentiments
In the values of humanity
In the power of gratitude
And the sustenance of care.

Guilty I am
Of having believed we were same.
But, indeed, we are different.
