About Regrets

You can live your life with regrets

Creeping up your back

Filling up your throat

And clawing out your eyes

You can live with regret

That drives you insane

That makes you question

And that haunts your nights

You can live with regret

Running around in circles

With what if and what nots

The ifs and buts and whys

But time doesn’t stop

You keep losing moments

With regrets that keep you in the past

Forgetting the precious present

Happiness wont chase you always

Choices wont knock your door

Chances wont be up forever

The other door may close

And you have to move on

Swallow the regrets

Swallow the lump of hurt in your throat

And leave the memories behind

Grab the chance for new memories

A fresh start, a new chapter

For a life filled with no regrets

Just do it, carpe diem
