What have we got to lose? Each other? Not likely. Our love? Nonexistent. Our money? Laughable. It wasn't ours in the first place. No, the only thing we have to lose is our sanity. But lets be real: were we ever truly sane? The moment we thought this was a good idea, were we still considered sane? 

The idea was eccentric in the best way. Eccentric, not insane. Though most people would probably think differently. To us the idea was perfect. Flawless, even. I wonder what would have happened if we hadn't thought this was a good idea. Would we still be how we were before? Or would we have fallen down this endless hole anyway? We will never know. Though, I bet we would have fallen anyway, but it would have been a little later in life. Who knows. We certainly don't. 

We ended up succeeding. Our plan worked. The outcome was exactly as we expected. Our sanity returned, but our lives' were cut short and we are only left with regret. Yet, I wonder: do we have anything to regret? We did everything we meant to do, saw everything we wanted to see, did everything we wanted to do. Sometimes it was at the expense of others, but we didn't care. No. We don't deserve to have regrets, but I do anyway. I don't regret anything we have done. No. The only thing I regret is that I can't do it all over again with you.
