Regret

You'll never know what you've lost until it's gone
You won't realize it's moved til it's moved on
You'll never know what whole is til you're broken
You'll never hear a word that isn't spoken
You'll only see the bait but not the trap
You never know how strong a memory can really be
Until it's all you have.
