Regretting Poems

Regretting Thoughts

Half of the time I lay wake, 
On my bed out past eight. 
Thinking if I could replay the day, 
I’ll change a lot of the things I say. 
Like me being strange, 

Or like when I kept trying to be a friend, 
I just made it awkward for them then. 
I am afraid that

Coveting and Regretting Soon After

Your trait TBH --
Narcissism behavior
Hatred...that's BS

Personality
Matters to me as well as
Character so pure

Your motives, so bad
Shady to the core and such
Naughty, out of hand

You're in want always
Coveting over me and
My lustful nature

Writing sad senryus
I know I suck at these poems
So over you, so true

I feel bittersweet 
Tune in strange mind and young heart
Easy to forget...

I'm

Regretting

please don’t love me
i’m such a damned mess, darling
i feel like a slob in all of my forms
physically, emotionally, spiritually
my mind hates my body
my mind hates itself
it twists the people i love into monsters
i’m scared that if you love me i’ll love you back
and i’ll make you into a monster
when all you are is open

By wasting time lamenting of past failures 

We deprive ourselves of future successes!

Premium MemberRegretting the Past

Regretting one's past ruinous actions
 
is certainly a waste of precious time 

wise would be to use the lessons learned 

to build his future's edifice sublime!

Tenderness

There our tenderness was,
It's not guilty of course,
that there is no it more,
that your knock in my door
I do not wait in silence,
Gravity, 
languor, 
violence
in viscous webs of lonely grief.
How much of tenderness did we give,
Do you remember, honey?
Here now just dust (it's funny) 
is really covered our caress with,
I vainly try to wipe, I

Regretting Fretting While Upsetting and More

Regretting Fretting While Upsetting

Regretting fretting,
When we had been upsetting;
Away with letting.

Jim Horn

There may be many more things,
Which Trump has trumped up
That are needed by Trumpsters
Who do need to be trumped up;
Held golden shower with a cup.

Did See God's Sight in the Night

When on my God I have always relied,
Can now be content becoming satisfied;
Also, did

Seize the Day, Or Die Regretting

good morning. If, in fact, it is so. 
i cannot quite yet tell,
but if its not, ill make it be,
or at least some other such.

Any rate, i must,
for the vertical joy calls to me so loudly 
at so many of my doors
that i must give in 
and heed the brightness of the day,
which begs to

Regrets I Regret Regretting

Did you mention 'regrets'?

I have one or two, a few or possibly a million.
Depends on which way the wind is blowing,
and how gracious I'm feeling in the moment
Like, I'll never forgive that guy who butchered
my ideals of love everlasting,  that'll last a lifetime
nor, when he lied about my best friend, just
to prove a point

Regretting Cake

One bite makes you large. 
One bite makes you small. 

Two bites make you charge.
Two bites make you ball. 

Three bites of this regretting cake; of illusion. 
Four bites stomach and head aches of dissolution. 

Five times once bitten 
Six pieces missing 

Seven deadly sins committed in the kitchen. 
Eight teen flames blown away seemingly

Regretting Cake

The moment I stepped on the scale,
my mouth started to shout and wail,
not that many pounds!
My belly’s so round,
I’m starting to look like a whale!

I shouldn’t have eaten more cheesecake,
it sure was my biggest mistake, 
no more skinny me, 
three hundred eighty,
so heavy I may cause a quake!

I no longer can wear tight jeggin’s,
