Regret

[Toasty]

I wake one morning
Emptiness beside me - cold
Lost without your warmth

[Chi]

hmmm... i have mixed feelings about this one. So short and yet so precise. Guess you gotta take the good and the bad. Kudos none the less, for having felt the same pain as i have

Love this one Toasty. Its short but it get the point out there.

Thanks for the comments, Chi and Iladys! I'm glad you both like the poem... It's okay to have mixed feelings about my poem, Chi... We all have mixed feelings eventually. The poem was really supposed to capture that one moment... but I'm pretty lucky. I haven't felt that pain in a long time. I sometimes have to think back to get the emotions I once had on paper...

<3 to all of those who feel regret about anything in their lives.

Yush! i guess am more alone then i thought, but then again i have more regret then normal either

[Toasty]

Well, I was really alone for a long time. I managed to get past that point, and am married now... and have a good base of friends that I can rely on. I just don't LET myself be put in that point again. Yeah... I used to be REALLY REALLY really depressed (not that "oh, look at me... I'm so sad"... I mean the REAL depression where you are literally NOT right in the head and there is something VERY wrong with you)

...

I hope you get better, Chi. :( I know that the only way I got past regret and loneliness was to push past that point and work to move on.

I really like it : )

To me you captured a painfull moment very accuratly, and that's a great job with such few lines. It makes it even more powerful because it's short : )

Really good job
