Regret
Its a tearful flaw flashback
How i came to be a murderer me
How my life turned like a leaf in strong winds
And now my soul bleeds guilt
My heart Itch's the love went sore
It all started at our young lovemaking
On one of our indoors romantic dates
The silent hotel room that saw our love grow and glow
The 4 walls that only knew our secrets
All started in a special way
The merrymaking hands touch
To the face to face love looks
Like a couple in their last night of love
The kisses out of close glares
The body caressing that exploded our feelings
One act leading to another
From the seats to the sheets
But how could we stop this
I wish i knew it would end the way it did
I wish i knew it was sweet only for seconds
I wish, i had learnt how i do now
For the end came, the mission accomplished
The flavour gotten, not as i thought
He had nothing to lose, nothing to follow
My virginity,my purity,my all
What followed haunts me
And the haunt hurts me
I realised i was two in one
But took me months to decide
For it was a commitment, i was young to fall into
So defenceless,so immature
My only way out, the choice my intelligence
To get rid of it,considered it a 'thing' not a life
For i hated to feel its wrong,a feeling that could stop me
Am here now,in pain n vain
In tears and fears
Feeling a murderer and a handler
Sleepless nights feeling the cry of my daughter
Feeling her pinch my heart
From the toilet i dumped her
Like a lunatic took the last look n flushed
Sorry daughter, i was not me
