What I had done
A poem of remorse

I walked slowly away knowing what I had done
No way I could correct my mistakes
I cried as I sat alone in the park
I had no one left to turn to for help
Everyone knew better than to try
They told me it was wrong
But still, I felt the compulsion
Day and night it consumed me
I had to do it
That’s what I told myself
But now I know the truth
And every day I lament
Oh how I wish I had changed my ways
If I would have just stepped away
My dearest love would still be here
Dear God, what have I done
