To Accept Regret's Hug
Regret is something no one can fully wrap their heads around. When we make mistakes, where does our head go? Where do we go? Our minds fall down an endless pit of remorse and try to claw their way out knowing there is no escape. That is what regret feels like. Guilt is as consuming as a bottomless pit is, but it is because of that infinite drop that we are who we are. Rather than wasting time figuring out what regret and its friends are up to, it is lighter on our minds to accept what is and try to let go of the pasts that deteriorate us.

To Accept Regret's Hug is no figurative title; it is a phrase that means exactly what is written. Accepting regret's hug is no different from accepting a family member's or close friend's hug. In a way, regret is everyone's best friend. It helps us more than we know it. Sure, it is a bit of a brat a lot of times, but what is a family or friendship with no quarrel? The good and bad of relationships are what make them special, and regret is no different. Learning to live with your mistakes and learn from them is one of the hardest goals one can achieve, but it is that exact challenge that makes it worth it in the end.

The poems of this book are meant to bring more understanding to regret's mission and its morals. Through its upbringings of aches and breakdowns, questions arise as to why it must linger among our emotions and confront our very dreams. The poems carry the same questions, only instead with answers. They may be difficult to wrap one's head around, but it is the ease of figuring out the answers that regret's questions do not bring. There is a balance in life and poetry, and these are some words that will hopefully bring reassurance to those who struggle with accepting their past and regrets. Whether it's a lot of comfort, a little bit, or even just a few seconds of it, these poems are made to make days a little better one poem at a time.
