Regret Poem by Vishorag Shadja

Regret

Rating: 4.7


The cycle of events,
Ones which I cannot vent;
Have haunted my thoughts
Like a noose of ascots.

Undaunted I try to Escape
And to whip into shape
The life that has transpired
And the plans that backfired

Nonetheless I will push forth
As fast as the slowest sloth,
Also, try to overcome-
And become wholesome..

Uphill task this is I know,
But to this world I should show,
The past that haunts me-
Might be snuffed with reverie.

but, daydreaming isnt enough
We have to live through stuff.
Wishful thinking gets me nowhere,
Except making life threadbare...

Wake up, get up, be strong..! !
Expell whatever that is wrong,
Sing that long overdue song-
Of victory and virtue before long.

See the life change before you,
And if what I hope is true,
The past will not matter at all,
And at the center you'll stand tall.

excellent stanzas - but, daydreaming isnt enough We have to live through stuff. Wishful thinking gets me nowhere, Except making life threadbare... Wake up, get up, be strong..! ! Expell whatever that is wrong, Sing that long overdue song- Of victory and virtue before long. nicely penned

Don't let the past haunt your present and future. Instead of day-dreaming, one needs to put in sincere efforts and 'See the life change before you'. Thanks for sharing this motivational piece of poetry.

Yes, as you have rightly pointed out, it is the present that can make a good future and so it is important that we wake up and expel whatever is wrong.
