Remorse by Emily Dickinson — Read

Remorse is memory awake, / Her companies astir, -- / A presence of departed acts / At window and at door.

It's past set down before the soul, / And lighted with a match, / Perusal to facilitate / Of its condensed despatch.

Remorse is cureless, -- the disease / Not even God can heal; / For 't is his institution, -- / The complement of hell.
