Regret

For doing something unspeakable
I grew up hating you
When life was miserable
I put the blame on you.

When I had the chance
I ran away from you
Your mere appearance
Can make my mood turn blue.

Then I heard the news
And I came home running
I still think it is no use
For I ended up crying.

I thought I was indifferent
But why can't I stop my tears falling
When I saw you there
Inside your coffin, lying.

Even in your death
I still feel cheated
For inside my heart
There is still hatred.

Yes, it made no sense
For whom will I direct it?
Now that you're gone
All I feel is regret.

I thought I would be relieved
But it feels empty inside
Those years of hatred
They also have died.
