A Thought of Regret

A singing voice grown il
A blooming flower broken
A story kept in mind
A thought that went unspoken

It's not what they expected
It's not what they had dreamed
It's a stronger will to rethink
It's not what it had seemed

The cataract of thought
The water flowing thickly
The sight too dark to see through
The sight that lies there sickly

They knew it was the end
They did it anyway
They rethought all their choices
Their thoughts at last astray.
