"Yes I Have Regrets!"



"Yes I Have Regrets!"

I regret that the simple thought of your smiling eyes can still cleave my heart in two.

I regret that the memory of the power of passion in your touch, can transport me through time for the briefest moment, too the murder of my soul!

I regret the sound of your voice, still echoing in my mind. Shards of ice melting in my ear with tremulous tones, speaking words of impending pain often followed with sharp fingers!

I regret each kiss, that tore my heart from my chest and left me filled with this eternal, internal, longing!

I regret the absence of "I Love You" in your life, that lead to the absence of "I Love You" in our Love!

I regret the silencing of our love song. That music played upon our flesh. Notes plucked with tooth and nail, plied with lips and tongue, bowing arms and legs, singing the sweet songs of the flesh!

I regret most of all, that love will go on, without the loving!
Like a blossom on the "Tree of Life" that leaves no fruit!

"Yes I Have Regrets"

About this poem

Ok, who doesn't right? I'm not one of those people who say "I have no regrets, I just keep it moving!" Those kind of people give others regrets! Yes, I have regrets, losing someone who brought so much to you and watching her leave putting it all back in her pockets. Knowing that I will forever feel her shadow in my arms, hear her voice calling me to that place!
