No Regrets

LostLove

No regrets my sweet darlings gone,
Every one of you that I loved so dear.
I can still see your faces, everyone,
As in my mind and heart I call you here.
I remember one who kissed and ran away.
I wasn’t looking, but I think it is a crime,
She never tried again, not to this day,
Even though now I’m looking all the time.
One I loved who hurt me very deep.
Another who in turn I hurt quite badly,
I hold the anguish of both and know I’ll keep,
Memories of loss and guilt inside me, sadly.
One I know I’d never want back.
Lies and deceit stripped away my pride,
Taunted in public, left naked on the rack,
Ashamed, humiliated, and nowhere to hide.
There was one who never could love me,
Though it happened that I loved her most of all.
Isn’t that the way it always turns out to be?
Nothing quite prepares you for such a fall.
One I loved because I thought I should,
Not distinguishing between love and lust.
There was one who treated me so good,
That plain good manners required of me I must.
I have loved and ran, rejected first through fear
That I would be found to be not good enough.
I have driven away the one I loved most dear,
In a cruel charade of bluff and counter bluff.
Others I have loved as in childish games,
Like the one I loved but simply couldn’t show it.
I recall the intricate strategies more than names.
There was even one I loved but didn’t know it.
Now I find I’m face to face with all my fears,
And dull, dread loneliness, the worst of pain
But to meet my loves again would just bring tears.
Besides, we’d only say goodbye all over again.
