Regret

Regret is...
Not mending a broken relationship with a loved one

Regret is...
Not taking a risk in life to go out on a limb 
And try something life-changing

Regret is...
Not asking that cute guy out that comes in the 
restaurant everyday and sits at your table

Regret is...
Giving up a child for adoption
Deep inside knowing you couldn't take care of him,
But in reality you could have

Regret is...
Not publishing a book before Idie
