Day in the life of Regret
Regret lay in an unfamiliar bed
Hungover from the previous night
As she stumbles into the bathroom
She clutches her side
She flicks on the blinding light
Regret looks in the dull mirror
Along her sickly ribs is a stock tattoo of an owl
Dozens of memories coat her body
She dons her dirty armor
And ventures back out into the world

I was and still am unsure about what exactly motivated me to write this poem. I remember having a clear picture of regret as a character. It was almost vivid.
