Regret is when you don’t do what you wished you had
When you don’t speak out for those who can’t
When you let what could have been
Slip
Out of your fingertips
Because you were afraid
Regret is when year after year
You wonder
What IF?
But it’s too late
It will always be too late
It was too late the moment
That you said the words
“Please Don’t Come”
So you will never know
What could have been
If you had just risked
It all
Your heart
Your soul
Your dream
You will never know
If the love you felt was not just a fantasy in your head
If it would have been
And you would have been
Enough
For him to stay
You will never know
Because you told him
Not to come that day
Because in your mind
He would come
And go
And you would be broken
As you continue to be
