regret

how were you able to insinuate yourself into such a small crack
in my foundation, so thin, so dark and distant
how were you able to make me question everything I know
with a raised eyebrow and smirk
I look straight forward
Your machinations mean you are deeply twisted
how would I survive
if I'd not remembered
all the misgivings your presence caused
my heart was moved, but my mind resisted
but after years
I still dither
and remember
why you were able
and I am unable
to forget
so I regret
