Regret. by Aaron Dusenberry
Sodden pillow, wet with perspiration.
Filaments of regret, inching forever downward.
Cramped orbs twitching in agitated slumber.
.. ..
A hand clutched in agonies prayer,
The afterthought of decisions made.
The fraying sense of wanton self.
Coalesce into streamers of memory;
But never fully engage.
.. ..
When all further reason is obscured,
And no answers remain to contemplate,
The vision is lost for good, and only the future awaits.
Sodden pillow, wet with perspiration.
Filaments of regret, inching forever downward.
Cramped orbs twitching in agitated slumber.

A hand clutched in agonies prayer,
The afterthought of decisions made.
The fraying sense of wanton self.
Coalesce into streamers of memory;
But never fully engage.

When all further reason is obscured,
And no answers remain to contemplate,
The vision is lost for good, and only the future awaits.
