Regret
My mind swells with regret
While my heart bursts
With piercing sorrow.
From my eyes,
Tears pour relentlessly.
A mournful wail escapes my mouth,
Full of everything I’ve lost,
Full of the regret that stabs my heart,
Full of the wishes I have wished.
The regret I feel is strong
And I feel as if there’s no escape.
I’m lost and trapped in this feeling
And I can’t get out.
I’m falling apart
And I’m dying inside.
What's killing me slowly is
This terrible feeling
Of loss and regret.
