Regret


The only thing I regret

Is no telling you I love you

The second I knew I did

I chose to wait and

It costed me you

Our relationship was doomed

Before it began

The day you told me 

You loved me I

Couldn't bring myself

To say it even though

I knew I loved you as well

Then you took your life

And I still couldn't 

Bring myself to say it

Looking down at you as you

Got sent six feet under

Three years later

I still can't bring myself

To say it

Even though I do.
