In Your Head

Regrets

I've drawn regret

From all that I didn't do.

I'm asking mercy to come

So I can let go of what I've done

And move on.

I can't move on without cleaning the slate.

Even though I've started forgiving myself,

My hands shake with uncertainty

At what I've done

And what I didn't do.

Sometimes,

I wish the hands on the clock didn't turn one way.

I wish I could go back in time somehow

And change all the things I regret.

I know it must sound stupid,

But I can't help but think how things could be different

If I hadn't done some of the things I regret now.

Queen Latifah once said,"I made decisions that I regret, and I took them as learning experiences... I'm human, not perfect, like anybody else."
