Regret
The things you wish,
wish you had done
The people you have met,
the things you said
Such regret
This hurt caused,
inflicted on others,
your family,
your brothers
The things you wish
Wish you had done
You beseech,
for now..........
they are out of reach
Such regret,
you had today
Your mindset,
what did you say?
This lump deep down
Hard yet brittle
Never goes away,
keeps that frown
The things you say
These actions lost,
friends and family gone
To what cost?
Your regret put upon
The things you wish
Wish you had said
Wish you had done
Such pain
Such dread
Your regret ,
put upon
The things you wish,
have now gone
Correct the damge done
Don't reach for the gun
This regret..put upon
The things you wish
....to say sorry
For, there is still time,
to establish,
to stop this crime
Your mindset
This regret
The things you wish
The things you need to forgive
This regret
Stop this mindset
For,....You must live
