Regret
The passage of time has come at last
The passage of time has passed us by
I cannot hear it cannot see it
Yet the pain is still the same
Yet the pain remains
And he wonders
Where is all the love?
And she wonders
Why do I deserve this?
And it wonders
Why all the pain?
And I wonder
How could I do this?
Oh how joy melts into grief
And weeps its shining tears of hope
Rays of hope, hearts of hope
That die;
The outer shell is peeling cracked
My truth has been exposed
I can taste its bitterness
The memories in my head sicken me
I cannot catch my breath
Each day forever I choke
On this black tar substance
That which is called Regret.
