The Day I Regret.

The day I regret
Is the day that I didn't say I loved him
Because that is the day he died.
He died in a hospital bed
He was fighting an on-going war.
He lost that battle, on that day
That I didn't say I loved him
That day will haunt me forever
It has shattered my heart
I cant stand myself
And I miss him so much
I wish he was here
To tell me it was OK
To tell me he loved me
And that he will see me tomorrow
And all of the days after that.
I know that he is in a lovely place
Away from that pain
God looking over him
Him looking over me
That heals some of the pain.
I cry everyday
He's always on my mind
I regret so much
I wish I can take it back
Take back his pain
I wish I could have taken his place
I wish I could have died.
He was such a good person
Caring and loving
I miss all of those memories
I wish I could freeze them in time
He never deserved to die.


Author notes

My boyfriend died recently, in a car crash. We were planning so much.

Choice 4, but I think this could be a choice 2, too.

    Aww...I'm so sorry that happened to you. However, I think that it was nice that you were able to express your pain through words. This was very well written and emotionally deep. I wish you the best of luck.
