Regret

i regret being the one to care
in all my friendships of despair
i clearly saw the line and the limit
but i pushed past it to ignore what was written

i regret not knowing who i could've been
i killed myself to impress my friends

but now i lay in cold blood
no one around and nothing to hug
i paint a scene of my happiest days 
and it's the only thing that chases the tears away

If a person has to impress someone then they should not be going there. I enjoyed reading your heartfelt work. Sara
