Wandering now and then
my mind does wonder,
to things I’ve said
in foolish innocence.
If had know then
what I know now,
would I have held my tongue
and kept it all secret.
or would my courage have held
and allowed me to spill
what would forever change us.
Regret rises violently
clutching at my throat,
damning me for the foolishness
and the haste with which I spoke.
or is it rather the sound of my own self pity
as it wraps me in its loving arms
hoping I won’t see through its guise.
There is no answer to be had
for a question asked too many times
of ears clamped tightly shut
It will be mine alone to go on wondering
if regret is what I shall choose to hold
or if the truth was worth the price.
