Regrets and Denial
I hate myself.
Along with everyone else.
Take it all back.
Regret washes over me
like a wave washes over a toddler.
They were just playing around
when, suddenly, the wave
tramples them down with no mercy.
Like getting punched in the stomach
when you least expect it.
And you feel like puking
But nothing comes up because you're empty.
Like getting stabbed in the back.
You never saw it coming
but the sharp pain of the knife
is so sudden and unmistakable.
You lurch forward in pain
but no words can explain
The regret that you feel.
