Theme : In the end we regret the choices we failed to make.

 

Perhaps the untaken path was far from scary, 

Perhaps it was gilded with success story,

Waiting endlessly for us to tread,

Perhaps it drowned and disappeared in pages unread.

 

Perhaps the connections we failed to make,

The chances we feared to take,

Shattered slowly with the sands of time,

Shut its doors despite being sublime.

 

Perhaps the hands we failed to hold,

The words that remained untold,

The hugs we failed to share,

Wilted tearfully as moments beyond repair.

 

Perhaps the songs we failed to sing,

Neglecting the little joys that life brings,

Wallowed in a well of regrets,

As life marched towards sunset.
