Attempt at Regret by Beth K HannahI want to find an oasis
A place to lay my shoulders
And let down my hair.
He should have been it,
But once again I was left in the dust
As another boy galloped off with
My heart, my soul.
Now I look to the moon again
The cloud covering her is impenetrable,
How I loathe watching the sky
Change to sunlight.
How I loathe not being there,
With you.
I guess I should have known
By the feelings of regret
That have been hiding
Behind my eyes.
I only have known so much
And you made it seem so little.
He/you have been dancing on my heart
For months and minutes.
I knew I would die or drown in him/you.
I just didnt know Id come back to
Earth and face this heartcollapsing sky.
If only I wore regret as well as
She wears you.

Author's Note: For those who don't know me, I do not feel regret. But I think this is what it would feel like. I have had this weird feeling lately.
