Sometimes the regret hits me.

I look at the date and count how many months you would have been.

How many weeks I would have known your scent.

Your cry.

I would have protected you. Given you what I didn't have.

But I was scared and unprepared.

So now I deal with the regret silently.

Because it would be hypocritical of me to complain; I have always laughed at people who shot themselves in the foot and cry after.
