I regret the day I ever met you

In the quiet of the night, I sit alone, bereft,

My heart a heavy burden, in sorrow deeply left.

For in the tangled web of love, I found my fateful rue,

A tale of unreturned affection, a pain I can't subdue.

I poured my soul into the abyss of your gaze,

But you, a distant star, remained beyond my graze.

With every beat, a silent plea, a hope I dared accrue,

But alas, my love, like echoes lost, returned unto the blue.

I regret the day I ever met you, a bitter truth to bear,

For in your fleeting presence, lies the seed of my despair.

Oh, how cruel the hands of fate, to intertwine our fate,

Only to leave me stranded, in love's forsaken state.

I watch as you drift away, like petals in the wind,

Leaving me to mourn the love that never truly pinned.

Yet amidst the pain and longing, a flicker still ignites,

A silent vow to cherish, amidst love's endless fights.

Though you may never return the love I hold so true,

I'll carry it within, a silent flame, until my days are through.

For in the midst of darkness, a glimmer still remains,

A testament to the love that eternally sustains.
