Regret


Non, je ne regrette rien of my past,
Cannot remember their address or name
School friends, anyone, it’s all the same.
Save it for another day, the first, the last.
I cherish a place I can call my own
Where I wake each day a brand new start.
There I may talk upon the telephone
And never mention my wounded heart.
Because it’s you a stranger who are mine.
There is your give, my take, and vice versa,
Limits reached and yet the burning fuse.
My moods sway this way, that way, confused.
I say I am me, not you, and worse or
Stranger still am falling apart, resigned.
