"Don't Wait for Regrets"

it's the little things
never the big ones
the unexpected things
that catch you off guard
with no quick good answer
the stuff that has taken
up housekeeping in the
back of you brain
it never goes away
and you never get to it
it haunts you in quiet moments
and gets lost in the hustle
and bustle of everyday
should I have
how could I have forgotten
why didn't I
regrets
my loss
how could you have so easily
slipped away, and the others
all gone but for the
regrets
