Regret

REGRET

Regret is a path not taken,

A result unknown.

It is a moment forsaken

And a dream unborn.


Regret steals ones hours

And darkens the dawn.

It's a spring without flowers;

A promise undone.


Regret is the weight

That burdens our stride.

It's always too late

To roll back the tide.


So let us decide 

And make it our song,

No regret will abide

Where our joys belong.

I rarely regret choices that bring pleasure only those resulting in pain or sorrow.
