Regrets
All alone in the dark
I hear ghastly screaming
Unaware if it’s in here
I pray I’m only dreaming
Fumbling with the light
I quickly look to see
The skeletons in my closet
Are staring back at me
I can hear their pain
A faint hollow sound
Affraid they’ll never fade
And decide to stay around
Back to haunt my life
I can’t escape their hate
Another sleepless night
Spent dwelling on my fate
