Regret

Regret hangs like 
a cloud above me. 

It overtakes me 
with nausea as it  
opens up to expel 
sour and sickening 
drops of doom 
into my pores. 

It racks my body 
with waves of heat, 
forceful and deafening, 
as it clings 
and holds 
and follows... 

Only parting from me 
the moment 
I'm brave enough 
to face it.
