Song of a regretful heart


If you are reading this, I urge you to read without stop or start

For this is the song of a regretful heart


First of all, to write this verse, I do not have the right

For trying to redeem, I should not even be in your sight.


Even if I sing this sad tune and shout my voice hoarse,

I don’t think It will convey the tiniest bit of my remorse.


On that fateful night, on the way there were warning bells,

My mind stopped processing, mistaking mere banter for all wrong signals.


With a remorseful sigh,I took an ugly bend,

And forever I feel lost a fabulous friend


Hopefully one day, after we put between us enough miles,

On your face there won’t be any anger or hurt, but bucketful of smiles


I know you will become big and conquer the mighty and the rest,

I’ve known you since long and wish you all the best


If u still feel bad, banish me and hate me, for what I did was totally wrong

It’s a sad but the right way to end this regretful heart song.
