Regret

Life takes strange turns

I call them strange

coz u love them, but ‘they’ donot

They judge u and prove u guilty

of things, which u so much treasured

of silence, whose music u never want to part with

of moments, whose memories can never ever leave your heart

I know which turn I have to choose

coz they force me to do so

I stand here looking bacj

at everything I feel I have lost…

They turn from every corner

shouting, teasing, insulting, proving me wrong

I shed a tear, I feel weak

I feel betrayed of my own heart beat

I hang my head, lower my eyes

I stare at my feet, never really thinking

I wish, I pray

I listen to the music, cherish the memories

but the insults and the guilt takes everything over

I know which turn I have to choose

but my feet feel heavy

I refuse to move

I feel guilty

I feel wrong

This is the price I pay for the music

which once was soothing

but now barely heard…
