My Only Regret
My only regret I can think of
Is not being honest with myself and others
For so long I've been in denial
I watched him die in my arms
And yet I act as if nothing ever happened
Now I’m quiet, shy and afraid of people
I witnessed a crime committed,
Against my husband to be
Shot in a drive by him was
Now he and I are no more
How I wish it never happened
Now im screwed up inside
Not sure if I should trust people or hide
I don't want the past to happen again
As the days go by,
I wish it was me who died and not him
It scares me so much to think of him
Now all I can do is write my poetry
To cast away all of my pain
Through words is the only way I know
