Regret

Regret…it’s a bitter pill to swallow
I know
Because I’ve swallowed them all
I’ve swallowed big ones
And small ones
Ones that make you crazy
And ones that keep you sane
Ones to make you thinner
Is there one to make you tall?
I have experience with pills
I’m telling you now
But the hardest pill I’ve ever had to swallow
Is the regret of losing you
It isn’t just hard to swallow
It won’t go down at all

The most bitter pill of all at times - regret - and you've penned it well, Sue.

You hit the nail on the head magnificently here, Sue! You are always so acute and accurate in your writing and I love your humour and irony. Very Alanis Morisette!! Love your upfront "tell-it-like-it-is" honesty as well. Your sentiments here make me gag - know exactly what you mean! Excellent, and thank you for your message helping me to find my way round The Den! I'm such a blob! :)) TY Kate xx

Take your foot out of your mouth, then take the pill. Good one.

Well spoken. Sometimes just as you swallow the regret pill tripples in size

Perhaps a spoon full of sugar. No, I agree. Regret is a hard one to swallow. This is a fine write.

Speaks volumes Sue, in so few words.

The Steel Chains of Love by Rose Rideout

I have taken pride in writing this novel as so many people have the wrong impression on bikers because they dress in leather clothing which is to protect themselves in case of an accident. The majority of bikers are known Policemen, Firemen, Doctors,
