FEELINGS OF REGRET

No one ever told me that it would ever be like this

I thought you would be someone who
would accept me for me and ask
for nothing less than that

I know that we are apart
and you have not been here
since

But I often have a day or two
where I wish that things worked out

You should have been my knight
instead you ripped out my heart

Causing me to doubt others
and even myself

You wanted to take full custody
but I told you no

You didn’t want to move with me
you even had your doubts

I know it’s been three years
and we have not talked since

But you don’t even pay for your son
let alone your other kids

I sometimes wish that I
had followed my heart
and not my head

As crazy as it sounds
my life would have been
better

Had I never sinned
