REGRET is me sitting on my stoop and when you came out of god knows where
and proceeded to sit next to me
and all your toxic waste spilled from your mouth
and through all that filth
i managed to hear "hey, what's your name?"
REGRET is when my mouth and tongue found a way
a way to work
and i uttered the name that was given to me by my mother
REGRET is the night that my mind and body was no longer mine
and some of me resided in you
REGRET is when i continued to give you my body and time
being used like a slice of bread
using the parts that you only wanted and then tossing the crusts..
boy didn't your mother tell you the crust is the best part?
REGRET is when i was in so much pain
pain that i never even knew existed
and only later to find out that you burned me
burned me like a house burning to the ground
burned me like acid burning human flesh
burned me like soap running into my eyes
and boy did that hurt!!!
REGRET
