Regret
Regret
I wish I could say
At the closing of Life
I wish I could say
I gave it my all.
I wish I could say
I fought the enemy
That I witnessed its red eyes
Dilate and close.
I wish I could say
I never allowed the Sirens
With their cursed melodies
Tempt me to my grave.
I wish I could say
I never let my heart stop beating
Never fell down and
Sink away from the world.
I wish I could say
My scars from the wars fully healed
That I never
Let it stop me.
Now
The time is close
The hour is upon me
The darkness will open.
I wish I could say
I never gave in.
I wish I could say
But I can not.
