He wouldn’t have.
If incense sticks
Could erase his guilt
And words
Could kill his pain
If adulation
Could heal insecurity
And respect
Could command obedience
If taste
Could repulse lust
And experience
Could negate history
He would relive his future
Without consequence
He would not
Have succumbed
intense yet simple,i am reading it again.
true,regret clutches with its nails deep.
