Regret

That deep sadness in the pit of your stomach
The constant reminder of what could be

The plague of what if

The questions in your mind as you try to sleep

The photo album you look through
The childhood memory

It never really goes away
It halters happiness in its tracks
It grips you tight and holds you back  
It reflects all of your pain and agony

As opportunities pass on by
Fear and it are brothers from your mind

It calls out from the depths of your soul
It'll always be there lurking hungrily

In the shadows of your mind
Always brings discontent along for the ride
