Die without Regret

A phrase only a few can claim.

Regrets come in unexpected ways.

Most from decisions that you knew

should have

but you did not

make.

So instead of without regret

maybe we should say

I hope they died in peace with themselves

from choices they thought were made

to be good ones.

Or ones that they regret as bad

but sought to make amends for.

Philosophy calls for us to think

as logic follows.

Dreamers such as I merely want to dream.
