"Regret"

 

How strange the familiar

when light is gone;

finding one's self

in dark, alone;

nothing left

but a crust of frost--

the stale of feeling

when love is lost.

 

The pain--the heartache...

Oh, what a shame!

where once was comfort

now only blame;

a dark crystal

covering the eye,

leaving only shadows

that pass with a sigh....
