Reflecting Regret

Through the eyes looking back in this mirror I see. Love lost and heart break, shrouded in disbelief I see forgotten intentions and half hearted lies. Cold neglect and unspoken goodbyes. Mirror mirror, why show me this shame? I chose to forget, I buried this pain. I've changed my ways, this past is behind me. But once again im reminded, of the man I used to be. Mirror mirror, please let me forget? I can't continue living in constant regret. Everyday I read the story these eyes sadly tell. Im reminded of the hurt, the loss and the hell. As im reminded of this dark past behind me I remember the reason I chose to be free Mirror mirror, I understand, Now I finally see. Remembering these sins is what keeps them beneath me.
