Reminiscent Regrets

Day 26/365

By Ellie HoovsPublished 2 years ago • Updated 2 years ago • 1 min read

I would be remiss

if I didn’t admit

that I often reminisce

over my collection

of wrong place trophies

but I don’t regret

the things I’ll never forget

those times are like we never met

I’ll always choose the least traveled path

even if it means I’m lonely

You can blame me

and try to shame me

but you’ll never cage me

i’m flying free

reminiscent regrets are for the dead

and I am freely living
