Is smothering me
And I’m tangled in the covers
So that I cannot break free
Strangled in the covers
My actions cast shadows over me.

Chained to the present
Can’t rewrite scripts of long past days
As I search for doors gone by
My diary fills with many a blank page.

And if by chance I choose to write
Two words devour the pages
“I regret.”
“I regret.”

Trial By Time

This hot blanket of regret
Is smothering me
And I’m tangled in the covers
So that I cannot break free
Strangled in the covers
My actions cast shadows over me.

Chained to the present
Can’t rewrite scripts of long past days
As I search for doors gone by
My diary fills with many a blank page.

And if by chance I choose to write
Two words devour the pages
“I regret.”
“I regret.”
Ignored mistakes lead to strong cages.

People, no doubt, will say things like:

"good write"
"hugs to you"

and..

"deep thoughts"

but I really liked it:

"Chained to the present
Can’t rewrite scripts of long past days
As I search for doors gone by"

and...

"Two words devour the pages
“I regret.”
“I regret.”
Ignored mistakes lead to strong cages."

..It's full fledged pain-

magnificent I say..
very well written-
I really liked this.. infact, I'm off to read it again!!

*Sincerely*

Billy

Excellent Well!
This truely spoke to me.
Some of us have regrets of different sizes/importance, this seemed to speak volumes of the bigger type.
Great write.

Well, I enjoyed the first stanza, I like the line about being tangled in the covers. We think on a similar note. I wrote a poem called "I'm Depressed" My first stanza is "this depression lays heavy, like a blanket over me, caught in the covers, I can't get free" Cool huh. Great minds think alike. LOL peace to you, Laura

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
