MY poetry
Critiques are most welcome.

Poison of Regret

She's drowning in her pain
And I don't know how to swim,

With tears falling from her eyes
She stares at the skies,

With questions I can't answer
With wounds I cannot heal,

From so far away
It just doesn't seem real,

What times are we living in
When we've got no time to cry?

When we bottle it all up inside
So you don't hear us ask you why,

What's well with the world
When nothing's well with you,

When everything you do
Hurts those so close to you?

There are so many rooms inside my mind
The memories so unkind,

I remember them like they were yesterday
The memories that won't fade away,

The first time we met
A day I won't forget

The first time we met
The poison of regret,

Whoever said 'All's fair in love and war'
Never tried telling the one whose heart they tore,

Inside it's all gone cold
Was it my heart you sold?

When the winds of change
Change their minds,

There's no going back

No, not this time.
