Deep Regrets Poem by jools England

Deep Regrets

Rating: 5.0


I've lost all belief
I had in myself
The person I see in the mirror
is somebody else

I don't know these eyes
there was a sparkle in mine
and I don't know this mouth
that fakes a smile all the time

I look at my hands
and see them covered with blood
Did I really hit somebody?
Oh boy, I really am no good

I didn't hurt her seriously
just bruised her lip
Nevertheless I hate myself
and deeply regret losing it

I wish I hadn't done it
I wish I'd turn back time
but this is reality
with no such thing as rewind

I guess I just have to come over it
and live with myself
But the face in my mirror
still belongs to somebody else

'Cause I've lost trace
of who I really am
Hope I'll find myself soon
and then I'll be back again
