Sitting in this chair
Under these bright lights
Praying, regretting
For my actions last night
If I just walked away
She would have been alright
But instead I had to fight
Three men approached me
And they demanded money
I looked and laughed
And said I had none dummy
As they began to hit me
I fell to the ground
They kicked and punched me
But I made no sound
As they started to run
I pulled out my gun
And kept pulling the trigger
Until I felt I was done
Four people killed
But I only saw three
Until a stray bullet
Hit a young girl in the knee
Now as I sit in my cell
With no bail
I await until
I see my victims in hell

I LOVE THE POEM CAUSE EVERYBODY IN THE WORLD REGERT SOMETHING THAT THEY DID IN THEIR LIVE :FOR EXAMPLE YOU GET INTO IT WITH YOUR MOTHER AND SAY SOME WRONG THING YOU REGRET FOR SAY SO I REALLY ENJOY READIMG THIS POEM. DAVON STERWART 8PERIOD
I agree everyone has regrets but its your choice to learn from em or keep doing the same negative actions. Which will reallycome back on you.

I enjoyed the poem. It reminds me of a situation that I was in when I was in the wrong place at the wrong time.It also made me think about the choices that you can make in life, and dealing with the aftermath of bad choices.
I really liked it, it reminds me of a situation that I was once in where I made a bad choice, and definitly had some major regrets about my decisions.
