winter faded like old parchment, drawn in charcoal
the trees waited for the inevitable colours of spring.
your voice coloured silence and left me standing
away from the crowd with my head inclined to yours,
listening to you, the shadows swept away and your
voice like the moonlight, the blue inks of the sea.
i watched you unwind night skies and the night stars
that burnt in the rivery realms of lost ruins and whispering
dreams, fell like dead men before your passion and there
was no reasoning with what you believed and you had
no compassion for the world. hatred fired up before
my forgiveness and you could not forgive. how many  
oceans scattered their flowers and light, how many
armies fell before the burning amber of your eyes?

We need not regret, yet it's touch is unforgettable
As humans, we are inclined to take action
May it be anger, love, or retaliation, it is our choice to make
We live it, we breathe it, we move past it
We are human, we learn, but we never forget it
Days past, Days Present, Days Future, we base our choices from it
We hate it, We love it, It is what we are today and whom we will be
Do we need regret? We never forget it
