Regrets


Is a moment worth eternity? Is a creek as wet as an ocean? Too vast to be simplicity Too fast to be called a motion The only thing I held sacred My blindness let u take it Physically I remain pure Emotionally I am now unsure Now I will forever be changed The shadow of a heart remains I sit here ashamed My soul is untamed I thought it to be a different circumstance I was not wrong I seized the chance But I held it too long Pain overdue How can this be true? Gripping onto reality I thought you couldn't stay mad at me I laugh. But one of no joy You have mastered a great craft My overcome feelings employ Cold and frozen. Is how my beating organ shall remain. I thought I had chosen But now it will never be the same. Hatred? I long for that emotion. But remember that thing that was sacred? It was my irrevocable devotion.
