Still in Pain

16-Feb-2025

This poem follows the same theme as my last two poems: regret. I don't like to keep a same theme for my poems but this is what I am feeling lately. Hence, these poems share a similar thought.

Hopefully, the subject of my poems will change into something positive and delightful.

All the clocks are pointing to the same time

All the bells are ringing the same chime

I thought it would pass eventually

But it has been bothering me perpetually

I keep thinking what it could be

If she were still here with me

My mind keeps replaying that moment

Am I punished to suffer forever in this torment?

The moment I ended it all

Why did I make such a hastened call?

Now I find solace in lovelorn songs

While introspecting my rights and wrongs

All my emotions have been numbed by regret

Her sweet relics cause my heart great upset

Perhaps this is what I deserve to reap

The damage I sowed in her is far too deep

My heart dares me to talk to her once more

But my shame has made my tongue too sore
