The Well of Regret

So come cast your tokens,
those with grievences against me.
Drop it into my swirling waters,
for I am the well of regret.
I shall hold all of your burdens to my heart.

First shall be brothers,
for all the times I was never there.
Toss in my failures when you needed me,
for the strength I never gave.
I should have tried harder.

A Fallen Angel shall step up next,
an innocent affection taken too far.
Cast in those times I failed you,
took for granted what we had.
In the end I thought too much of us.

Come Goddess and add to the water,
for the times we fought.
A trip to the land of the mormons,
for never taking the step when offered.
Now we are lost to each other.

Follow suit Demoness, cast in your many coins.
There is much you have lost in me,
I can never give back what you need.
From a ruined chance, to hurtful words,
another reason to go far away.

Finally come maternal ghost,
for you too have much to say.
A son who cast you out and ran away,
never took the steps to make it right.
And now I can never fix what was broken.

All those I have abandoned,
those I've hurt, and those I've wronged.
Toss your burdens into my waters,
to be lost in the swirling of my soul.
For I am the well of regret.
Never drink of me again...
