Regret, 8.10.13

Years ago our paths crossed
Here in this place
And in this moment

You looked at me,
Our eyes met
Mine wavered and fell

You passed with a warning,
Continued,
And I followed my own path

Now we meet again
In this place
And in this moment

Before I meet your glance
I quaver
Thinking of your warning

But you pity me
Sorrow fills your eyes
The wound of your warning is bare

Lady Regret,
I knew you then
But now I understand

  2. Beautiful melancholy! Your rhyming pieces are enjoyable, but I really like this one, too.
