REGRET


I can tell the world its a mistake,
a one time thing I fear not, nor regret.
But the truth is like the shadow that follows me,
dark and brooding but gleaming who I am.
Yes it was a mistake.
A fault that I will spend all my life, 
remembering in detail.
If given a chance,
to go back or rewind.
I would have put right that decision,
that ruined my life.
Who knows when you look at someone,
the pain they bury,
the weight they carry.
Its a facade, this world,
that has crushed my insides.
I smile, but I scream.
I laugh but I cry.
No matter how much I try,
i cant stop the buzzing in my ear.
the feeling that arises,
when i lay awake all night.
You are my regret,
my never ending guilt.
And that is the truth,
that I cant put right.

Burden


This heart of mine,
has wept,tears of joy,
tears of pain.
Grief and Pride
together outweighed.
This heart of mine,
has kept hidden,
memories of you and me,
for all eternity.
The laughter we shared,
the pain we endured.
This heart of mine,
has hoped for a life,
better and brighter.
My prayers intact,
despite life's lack of tact.
This heart of mine,
has wondered a million times,
why it endures,
this loneliness.
In all its glory,
this profound misery.
Yet this heart of mine,
has loved you all these years,
never changing its course,
even after you left.
