Regret Poem by Naomi Waters

Regret

Rating: 5.0


People everywhere live with regrets
Wishing they could take something back or change a decision
The issue being regret exists because what we did is in the past
Once an act is committed whether you fix it or not
It stays set in stone
I suppose thats why humans created the system of apologizing
Either with true guilt on their mind or simply..
Wanting to overshadow their apathy
The point is, regret is a means to hide what we have done
Humans make mistakes and sooner or later we face them
On our own terms or not
Humanity is flawed

Either with true guilt on their mind or simply, People everywhere live with regrets. You have rightly observed society at modern time. Humans make mistakes and sooner or later and we face them. These should be rectified and as per values of humanity we should forgive mistakes of others. Positive aspect should be learnt from regret. A valuable poem is brilliantly penned and shared.10
