9 reasons I miss her
/
5 days after she left
/
0 times I ever regretted being with her
/
8 hugs a day was never enough for me or her
They never regretted their decision to marry…
there never was a doubt…
for they found someone easy to live with
whom they could not live without.
Upon the porch he sat,
rocking;
ninety-years of flesh and blood;
The cloudless sky above
seemed
to tell the story of his life;
and he regretted this.
The fear of failure
Drove him mad
So instead of attempting achievement
He did nothing
Regretted something
And accepted failure

Why the hell did it happen?
Knowing you was never regretted
We share a lot of great memories together
Looking back- I thought we were forever
But thank God everything happens for the better
With years gone by unwedded
One's heart is ever indebted
All moments in time regretted
With no child ever begotten
One's soul is left soiled and rotten
All hope is ever forgotten
All things that are said
In the heat of the moment.
Will be regretted
In the cold light of day.
So think!before you speak
For we can never take back
All those hurtful things
We never meant to say.
Unspoken words
Saddest things never said
Broken hearts never mended
Feelings never soothed
Souls never moved
Unspoken words
Regretted forever
Loves lost
Never to be forgotten
Hurts more now than then
Painful lies,
broken ties.
Burned down dreams,
razor-ed seams.
Hellish fire,
ruined empire.
Bloody cuts,
hopeless "buts."
Hurtful words,
"You deserve..."
Silent cries,
regretted goodbyes.
Baby, it's a World of Hurt.
i fell
i fell hard
and not for a moment
ever regretted it
you were you
i was me
together we were
inseparable
still you're gone
i'll carry on
till we meet again
my fallen soldier

(This is a fictional poem)
One day I was cheating at poker and I got caught.
When I saw them get the branding iron, it sure looked hot.
They branded my balls before I could leave.
I seriously regretted hiding that ace up my sleeve.
Form:
Of all that has come and gone,
the coffins I have stood before,
the words I have said and regretted,
my daily cursings of God
and my nightly prayers,
it is you I think of most often.
And if our paths cross,
I will not speak one word.
TEMPTATION
Countless of your
Sweet traps have I resisted,
Oh, temptation,
Many a time
BUT
On, almost, every occasion,
Have to declare, I regretted it.
That alone, I swear,
Is my crime!

Here lies the remains of Dietrich Hoeschen
Died in an unexpected coal mine explosion,
He never regretted going underground
So in this final resting place we found
He’s safe from any further earth erosion.

Leaving home for work one day
serenaded by a tuneful jay
Walking down a garden lane
once more came his sweet refrain
Glancing over my right shoulder
my friend was following, ever bolder
His song emblazoned on my mind
the blue jay crooned with voice so kind
That as I opened my workday door
I regretted that he sang no more
I regretted the day that I met you.
The day that I have fallen in love with you.
I regret that I love you, not because you messed up, but because I did.
I messed up with those childish mistakes,
I hurt you, yes I did, I let you cry yes I did.
I messed up, I regretted everything because I love you and yet I hurt you, now I've lost you.
The dark, eerie balcony
This is where it took place
She was terrorized by fear
But fell with such grace.
Dangling and dying
She regretted that leap
Gasping for air
Yet falling asleep.
The cold, lifeless body
Burned around the neck
Was found that morning
Hovering above the deck.
God Bless Those Souls Who Thought There Was No Hope
Emptyness shadowed over her
No feeling
In her body,
These blades
Taken to her skin
Had this pain
Bring her back to reality.
Now these scars
Only hide a past
One of struggles,
Dispair,
Of a depressed child -
To, whom is now
One happy woman.
All the pain
Just a memory.
All things thought,
But very few, have been...
Regretted.
O'
I
I write you
this prayer letter
In awe hoping
you feel better
Almighty Holy One
incapable of being ill sick and yet
I've read somewhere
that you Father
Abba Father God
You yourself had once regretted
that you even you
Repented that you made
man?

tossing & turning its now time to stay awake
another sleepless night
had enough of this severe chronic back ache
In my morning pain I may have said some things
those horrible spoken words
that a sleepless night brings
I wish I’d never said them, I’m seriously appalled
for those horrible spoken words
no matter how much regretted can never be recalled
In this lonesome world that was robbed of light, you alone came and lit it up, you are my salvation, my hope and my life.
I have regretted letting you go, I desire to have you at my arms length for the rest of my life, but I surmise, you never would want to be with me again.
I have loved you, and I still do, it saddens me that you had ceased to.
unceasing, unstoppable
a force of nature, this rain
the sun no sooner pops out
here come the clouds and my hopes are dashed again
wretched, muddy, soggy trails
far too slippery to hike
a day that I regretted
winter’s constant rain is what I most dislike
----------
An Endecha, in quatrains of 7x:7a:7x:11a, intended to be a lament or a "sad song that locks up a moan"
unabashed analyzation
overturned rocks
and constant contemplations
an effortful acceptance
spurned out of desperation
gathers speed now flying
taking, ticking, tocking
the past once regretted
incomplete when forgotten
ambitious non-removal
ticking now, now tocking
can through such a fog
of dense perplexity
a life be shaken loose
can something take me
tick me, tock me
(This is a fictional poem)
I sold my cousin some poison ivy but I told him that it was pot.
When he started itching, he regretted what he bought.
He rolled up a joint and took a toke.
When he didn't get high, many of my bones got broke.
I learned a valuable lesson as I looked at my bruises, cuts and scars.
Never try to pass poison ivy off as pot if the guy is bigger than you are.

You can go to blazes the angry son said
The next day his annoying father was found dead
Son regretted these final words all of his life
Never enjoyed another day, partied or took a wife
Others tried to sense some sense into him
They could not get through to sorrowful Jim
He was determined to punish himself the rest of his days
His life was in grayscale now, everything else a haze
