Regret
She stood before distorted mirror of her past
Munching and mincing in stream of regret
As the Adam evaporated after the fallen apple
A pariah she became in the market-square of womanhood
Having lost her virginity on altar of love
Tonight tears tear her apart as the haunting ghost
Of happy ignorance nailed her in the coffin of grief
