Regret

Okay, so I had a bit of an incident where I brought a fake knife to school and pointed it at someone. There was a lot of shouting and I ended up suspended for a week. This is kind of how I felt afterwards.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Why would I do that,
What was to gain?
What did I think,
That I would obtain?

How was I so stupid,
Did I not think?
Did I not realise,
How far I could sink.

A silly knife blade,
A joking death threat.
I never imagined,
Would create such regret.

I didn't mean harm,
'Twas just a game.
I just wanted a laugh,
I never wanted this fame.

Wary glances,
Angry glares.
Sadness fills me,
With each frightened stare.

It is okay,
Everyone is alright.
No-one was harmed,
Though it was quite a fright.

Back to normal,
Back to routine.
Everyone's recovered,
From my little scene.

Maybe not yet,
But it will happen someday.
All will be forgiven,
It will be okay.
