Ainah Alota Poet Free verse

Risk and Regrets

Risked something for someone
But now, he's gone.
I could have done better, but we only get bitter
I could have saved it and yet, chose to end the story. 


The beginning was a mistake 
Fought for something that I thought for our own sake. 
The choices I've made, made me feel like sht. 
Now I was left with nothing but, pain and regret.

If happiness was you, I could have chosen pain before.
If happiness was you, I shouldn't have asked for more. 
If happiness was you, I could have ended it before the sore. 
If happiness was you, I shouldn't have chose you.
