Rewinding Regret



Where is the source of this feeling that expels such anguish
When does the time
 tick back the clock
How do you still look away…
and all I can do is stare for days…

Why have I turned…my life so gray…
What colors…
 have you envoked on me today.
Who was it…
that said that… “lightening never strikes twice”
Because unlucky me…is who I am today.

A moments regret…and a lifetime of memory…the feelings I feel is an everlasting nature of synergy.

A hopeful dream of enchanting reality. An illusion that can make every effort mean everything. A missing force and an unfateful regret. One hopeful wish that it will start it all over again
