Contemplation

I sit here on this quiet night
Staring out the window
Watching the snow fall

I think of the things that I regret
The few I have loved
The one I can not forget

I think of the people I have lost
The ones I have disappointed
The ones I will lose in the near future

How can I be so willing to leave
When others fight to stay
Guilt surrounds me

I long for forgiveness, contentment, inner peace
Things I do not deserve
I find it hard to believe they will ever come to me

sounds like a decision that you lament, this was a good write, well done. :)

Poetry comes nearer to vital truth than history.
