I have made mistakes, many mistakes, and each mistake I sometimes regret, but only one mistake burns a hole in my heart when I remember what I've done.
I would like you, and your friends, to write me a poem based on regret. If you regret something to the extent that you'd give (almost) anything and everything to take what you did back, or even if you don't regret a thing; I'd like a violently powerful poem on the subject.
If you can't be bothered to read all that:
Simply write me a poem on regret.
No rules, regret doesn't follow rules..
Good luck.
