Do Over
By Phalanx
I saw her for the first time in four years.
She looked great.
She also remembered.
I guess I didn't respond as bad as I normally would,
I was actually kind of proud of myself but,
I still wish, in hind sight, I would've done more.
I should've told her, I was sorry and that, I still love her.
I've never been that quick.
I should've gotten down on my knees and ask her to marry me,
Finally, for once in my life submitting but, I was too late.
I just want her to know how sorry I am and that,
I want to understand.
I've started ten sentences with "I."
This further reminds me of how I should've thought about her first.

Remebering, is why you can't forgive yourself. I don't know if it's right that we forgive ourselves for what we've done wrong. I think we're supposed to remember.Comments on "Do Over"

I sometimes search for excuses to start sentences with the letter 'I'.

Regret is a hateful, nagging bitch, isn't she?
