Tonight my tears won't stop
leaking from the myriad holes of my deadened heart
echoing the gray static of my empty soul
pooling into the nothingness of my life

I've lost the only thing that ever had meaning
given freely in a regretted moment of weakness
to turn back time, hold her in my arms again
I would make a pact with satan, give up my gods

Why this world couldn't respect the love we shared
shunning the bonds they only dreamed of living
that I listened to those hateful whispers
that final decision my undoing

Each minute that ticks by another cut on my body
waiting for time to numb the ache, the pain
faithless in the healing powers of my moon and stars
weeping my only release from the misery I created

Tonight I will dream of her, our love
dawn bringing back the uncertainty of her fate
powerless to change, take back the wrong choice
prayers frozen on my lips, hopelessness is all that I know

I gave my Honey, my golden retreiver, up for adoption and regret it everyday though I know it was the right choice. Never have I regretted the paths I've chosen more.

Excellent structure, rhythm and scheme...such a tragic poem, filled with great yearning and despair brilliantly expressed. This deserves more comments -Carl
