Regrets never fade

Sometimes,
You just look back and think.
Why did I do that? What was I thinking? How could I be so dumb.

At times,
You just sit down blankly.
You don’t even want to look back and reflect on the mistakes.

Maybe,
Some things are better left unspoken.
Once you show a scar, you face the risk of ripping it again.

If only I worked harder.
If only I tried to do better.
If only I knew what was going to happen.

If only…

Regrets just don’t fade.
