Poem: I won’t regret anything!

This poem, “I won’t regret anything!”, is a reflective and emotionally layered exploration of youthful defiance, emotional growth, and the slow, creeping realization of regret over time.

"I won't regret anything!"
I stubbornly gleam through my teens.
Heartbreak that's meant to crash the soul
Finds me somewhere deep down the road.

"Heartbreaks only make you stronger."
I agree with something I never understood.
Grief catches the soul-
Decades later, who was naive to believe
That regret doesn't spread through the skin.

Unable to move in grief,
Or to stay in peace,
She regrets saying anything about regret at all.
