Matthew Brackley Poet I do not know?

Regret

The things you wish, 
wish you had done 
The people you have met, 
the things you said 
Such regret 

This hurt caused, 
inflicted on others, 
your family, 
your brothers 

The things you wish 
Wish you had done 
You beseech, 
for now.......... 
they are out of reach 

Such regret, 
you had today 
Your mindset, 
what did you say? 

This lump deep down 
Hard yet brittle 
Never goes away, 
keeps that frown 
The things you say 

These actions lost, 
friends and family gone 
To what cost? 
Your regret put upon 

The things you wish 
Wish you had said 
Wish you had done 
Such pain 
Such dread 
Your regret , 
put upon 

The things you wish, 
have now gone 
Correct the damge done 
Don't reach for the gun 
This regret..put upon 

The things you wish 
....to say sorry 
For, there is still time, 
to establish, 
to stop this crime 
Your mindset 
This regret 

The things you wish 
The things you need to forgive 
This regret 
Stop this mindset 
For,....You must live
