The Regret of "Goodbye"

I regret

Leaving them behind

Saying goodbye

One last time–

I regret

The feelings this brings

Letting it all go

One last time–

I regret

The weakness that

Lies in my soul

One last time–

I regret

Thinking of the pain

They will feel

When I’m no longer there

I regret

Not holding on

To the thing they loved

Oh so much–

I regret

Ending it all

But, given the chance

I’d do it all again

Because

I regret

Not just the end

But my very beginnings

Oh, it’s too much–

I regret

And therefore I can

Leave those regrets behind

One last time–

I regret

Words unsaid

Things undone

Dreams unaccomplished

I regret.
