I wrote this one in high school for a poetry writing assignment for my Creative Writing class. I think the assignment was rhyming, but can't be sure - may have just done it as an experiment.
Some things I regret, some things I can’t undo
The things I have done are keeping me from you
Sitting in the sun, thinking of your love
Thinking bittersweet memories of past things done
I keep trying to say no, trying to deny
That I lost you, lost you — never to see you cry
Wiping tears from your face, each one that I caused
At the ocean of pain I felt, I paused
Not knowing what to say, this regret did make
Its way out of my soul, screaming in its wake
I could not think, could not trust myself inside
To say the right thing, to make what I did right
Please oh GOD PLEASE, I don’t want to lose your sight!
I crumpled to the ground as I sobbed my regret
I cried as the sun turned gold, red and russet
Remember my love, no matter what or how
I will be here for you as long as time will allow
So will my remorse, and be there it will
My guilt is forever, my love is longer still.
