A dark poem of regret

Regret

Unthinking gesture
Quick as a glance.
Gave into pressure
To dance the last Dance.

Desperate spasm
Embracing solace
Crossing the chasm
To harbor in no place.

Wandering specter
Prisoned remain
As watchman named Hecter
Guards the domain

‘Neath greystone lie
Forever unwanted.
The places you fly
Now become haunted.
