I see a smooth, polished piece of granite
where my name is etched in the rock.
My family and friends stand around it, weeping,
my mother still in shock.
Sorrow clouds their faces in grey
the same color as the sky up above.
I didn't mean to leave them like this, grieving,
for they're the ones I love.
And now I see the dark wood coffin
and the preacher says a prayer.
I now realize, with sickness in my stomach,
that I should be alive, living down there.
They lift up the lid and there I see my face,
my father is hiding his tears.
My best friend collapses to her knees, broken,
she's living both of our fears.
And as they lower the coffin into the ground
I see the hurt that I've caused the ones I love.
I wish that they could see my tears, falling as rain,
as I watch them from up above.

- Title: Dying in Regret
- Artist: Xxhidden_wingsxX

Description:
the title is "dying" in regret instead of "living" in regret, if you get that xD
it's about someone (boy or girl, doesn't matter) who commits suicide and sees the aftermath of what they've done to their family and friends, and they regret it. - Date: 08/04/2010
