The Regret

One slip of the mind
I was caught unawares
Devious was the trick
Submerged, delirious and depressed

Falling off from the steep ladder
I was landed with a thud
Bloody was the injury
Irreversible, dead and barred

Climbing the steps again
I was feeling the weight of heaviness
Rebirth was the goal
Determined, energised and reversed

Bearing in mind the wrong
I was tasting bitter and regret
Poignant was the lesson
Embedded, scarred and slapped
