Regret

is when the moonlight caught your face so perfectly

and in the dark we felt closer than ever

but when you leaned in

i turned my cheek

because fear was stronger 

than the urge to kiss you under the stars

until you could see all of me

Regret

is when we were dancing loud and free

the neon lights flashing between us

our bodies touching in all the right places

but when you caught my eyes

i looked away

because fear was stronger

than wanting to show you I cared

Regret

is all the things i should have done

but didn't

Regret

is all the times i wanted to

tell you how i felt inside

but couldn't

Regret

is all i have left of you 

now
