For Life

I'm going to have them for life; 

The memories and regrets

Dwelling on your mistakes and overlooking 

The love in those eyes for me. 

How I wish you stayed and not leaving me 

To be hunted by the beautiful memories of us 

That could have been more if only I was bold enough

But I never allowed myself to. 

Forgiving enough and understanding enough rather

Then acting like a weakling who nurtures pain,

And hurt and shuts others out

As we were from the early beginning of our broken souls. 

I've been hurt for life

I've been broken for life

I've been scarred for life because I chose to keep it in, relent and now I've regretted, still regretting, and would regret life. 

But all these did teach me one thing for life

That it's better to voice out,

Forgive and make more memories of the little time we have left than to keep it in,

Relent and later regret when time seems to have caught upon us. 

I know you love me.

Yes, now I know and I also do love you and would keep loving you for life

And rather than living with regrets, 

I hope and pray to live with the little of our beautiful memories for life.
