A regret so deep it flows through my veins
The memories are traced in my blood
Never to be forgotten
Never to be forgiven
For I cannot forgive myself
The night I almost lost you
Months I filled with the lack of you
A voice I seldom heard
Until the night I received the call
Which led to my biggest regret of all
As your life was put on a self induced clock
And the timer was almost up
I broke down
Could’t take it
I was unsure if you would make it
But you did
And As tears shined in my eyes
I learned
Friends are far and few between
And when you come across one
Hold on tight
Or they will slip away in the breeze of time
