regret
mareberry somehow i thought it would change things, somehow i thought it would make you see. my heart told me to push forward, while my mind tore all i once knew from my spirit. the regret streams from my face, i try to oppress it, to relieve myself of the guilt i feel. i know you can never love me, i know you'll no longer care. but within all the waiting, the fear and the tears, all i have left is my undying regret. 990506

jjjjjonathan i regret too much.
that's a debatable statement.
is there a reason? yes, undoubtedly. should i regret more? no. less? i'm not sure, but perhaps.
i should probably make less mistakes, but it's just so hard to not screw up.
failure? disgust? repulsion? revulsion?
just words. if it doesn't really matter, and i'm sure it doesn't, i shouldn't have a need to regret. but, since i want me to matter, i will regret the past, and worry about the future.

Carolyn Duncan no, nevermind, i have nothing to say.
how regret can make on fall silent. how
can words undo what's done? the breaking
of innocence by time. and reality a fire that spreads in our villages of paper-house dreams.
regret that makes us melodramatic. oh world, take me SERIOUSLY we cry inside. I'm so tired. Of all of it. Can't anyone hear me? and why do things unravel themselves, into that tapestry of the night sky we gaze at, cold and distant stars of all the hours past,never to be regained.

oodles Sometimes I regret the mistakes I've made in the past.
Things I should have done,
things I shouldn't have done.
But I've learned something from each and every mistake I've made.
The secret is to figure out what you may regret before you get the opportunity to regret it.

miniver Wouldn't it be fun
if everything were thought
in terms of mediocrity.
And none of it would die,
but keep a steady, growing beat
to which all those better-next-time
conversations might dance
and prance around the brain.

I grow weak.
Or I grow strong, in a weak way.
I was a "sensitive" child.

This one joins the dance.

i took it for granted. the ability to regret. the ability to have a moment pass and spend the next several moments rewriting the conversation and reworking the movements my hands had made. caring so much about time that passes is a wonderful thing. now i'm struggling to remember last week as I drift along. i've been on vacation forever now. when i come back, what will be left? will i regret my absence? i ask myself what would be left of me if you weren't here. and i assume that i'd be fine, just get along, ya know, keep breathing and all. mentally it hasn't phased me, yet tears are streaming down my face. i regret not being able to experience my own emotions.

lisa_is_bionic Interestingly, I've hardly ever felt regret. Unless it's that feeling you get when you realize you really shouldn't have fallen in love. I suppose that would be more correctly classified as 'bitter'. 000526

regret

My life has turned into a past. My eyes don't want to wake up. it hurts to be alone and to know that its all gone, but try to move on.
Its going to fast, life gives no second chances...

toni left to do nothing but wander and remember every time i tried to deny what i felt. and so i see the dawn, and i've become everything that they see in me. i am cold cruel relentless. though you fix things, people will always see what they want to, what they look for. so the same cycle i started long ago curves past and begins again. i regret ever opening my heart at all. 010202

from the files of birdmads vinyl collection daddy, what does regret mean?

well, you see, son, the funny thing about regret, is that it's better the things you have done than to regret the things you haven't done
By the way, when you see your mom this wekend, be sure to tell her...

"SATAN! SATAN! SATAN!"

psychobabe regret is like being sorry. I'm not sorry for meeting you, i'm not sorry for trusting you, i'm not sorry for loveing you, but i do regret ever meeting you.

what we had was fake, nothing but alittle white lie, that turned to dust in my mind...what you did hurt me, and I cant let is go which is why I regret meeting you.

I dont regret anything in my life, sure i've fucked up many times, but i have learned. But with this, i am not sorry, but i am regretfull for you.

L regret. It's the tapping at the back of your head. The knawing kind of feeling in your in your belly. It sometimes makes you shiver. It's that monster under your bed.
It's attached to your ankles and fades a bit when it's sunny

kinska You did it for my own good,
all the hurt you made me feel.
You've taught me about life,
about people, nothing's real.
Trust many but love very few.
From now on that is all I'm going to do.
I'm wearing my suit of armour with pride,
for since it all happened the naive girl has died.
I regret all the suffering
I regret that we were just one of those things
Regretful that I will eternally be regretfully yours.

futility I wish I had known
the magnitude of my decision
how I would idle, thinking it over
4, 5, 6 years later.
I wish I had realized sooner
what I needed
what I wanted
who I was.
now I know,
but I cannot return
to the place that
I cannot help dwelling on

Christy42 All at once he chose to leave and he did so in a whirl of baby powder and dusty memories, radiating warmth as he passed but leaving me empty. He sailed slow across the spacious room and landed in the doorway without a final statement or closing comment. Suddenly my insides were stirred and I felt regret for all that I hadn't said. As if he sensed this, he glanced back in my direction, finding my eyes with a scattered look. Pain soared through me as I realized that his eyes were the very color of a single savory stick of cinnamon. Though I longed to run to him, to hug him goodbye, to beg him to stay just a bit longer, my sandals stayed firmly planted in the blue burbur carpet. I imagined that he understood what I was feeling and supposed that his deep eyes were pulsing forgiveness. After a moment, he pulled his eyes away from mine and exited, leaving a trail of ardor and misery. I stood stunned, but slowly I recovered and I made my way to the window. I lifted up the blue curtain that covered it and peered out, just in time to see his car pull down the block. I uttered a single, soft syllable: "Damn." But as regrets are useless, I turned back to my circle of friends, who hadn't noticed my short departure. 010910

unhinged i feel like i'm supposed to regret it but i don't. she's telling me i can get pregnant anytime but that's not what i remember from health class. and i know what she would say...'i can't believe you fucked HIM...what is wrong with you?' i don't need imposed guilt. i don't feel bad about it so why should i let you make me feel bad about it? 010910

distorted tendencies I have two regrets. That I hadn't gone with my premonitions when I saw you at the movie theatre watching X-Men.. I was there on a date with John that night. But something clicked when I saw you. I'm glad you were second, because I know what's best, what's better, what I know as perfection. I do regret one more thing.. I regret that I ever hurt you as much as I did. I regret it everyday. 010929

Casey The world is full of regret. Some people believe that regret is the only thing this world is comprised of. But take it from me, regret is dangerous. Try to let it go.

It always helps a lot more when you can talk to someone about what your feeling. Someone who is willing to listen to you, andf you, in turn, have to be willing to listen to them.

If you allow your pain and regret to fester inside of you for to long, then it can comsume you, it becomes you. Your pain will be all you ever think about.

Pain can be a good thing, we must never forget the past. Instead, we must learn from our mistakes. I've had just as much pain in my life as anyone else, my only advice would be to deal with it in your own way, as long as it is a safe way.

And if anyone ever needs someone to talk to, I have an e-mail address
