Regret

Swirling in a mind full of regret
Wishing for what was not
Awash in remorse
With no hope in sight.
“Time heals all wounds” they say.
They say he will forget in time,
But for sure, in no time soon.
With all the things to remind him!
Bushes in the yard
Planted together.
A restaurant where
A meal was shared.
The car she picked out
And he bought,
Which he drive most every day
To and forth.
Stopped at a red light
Where they kissed
And down a stretch of road
Where there was an argument.
How can he forget.
When he sleeps
Most every night
In the bed they shared?
Yes, she is gone
And what they had is gone.
No more hope
The only thing left, regret.
