Regret
(A sequel to "Innocence")
Alma was my greatest regret,
My heart would ache when our eyes met.
My little girl to whom I would never smile,
I treated her so horribly, all the while.
*
My 'Project Origin' started it all
- Facilitator of my hardest fall.
Ideal results: we could not reach.
The standards were set too high to breach.
*
Alma's first child had gifts of speed.
But mind control was what we need.
So a second was born. We found success,
Yet, he turned on us, creating a mess.
*
The project kept dragging on for so long.
Then I finally realized I was wrong.
Shooting drugs in her like cannon fodder.
I have no right to call her my daughter.
*
She started entering our minds, one by one.
It comes to no surprise, from what I have done.
I gave the order to seal her away.
An act I regret every single day.
*
I left her secluded for so many years.
I can't sleep at night. My eyes flooded with tears.
I had Alice to maybe start anew.
But it did nothing. Her revenge was due.
*
It's settled - I will set Alma free.
I know that I deserve no mercy.
I'm sorry, Alma, with all of my might.
I'm coming to you now, to make things right.
*I do not own FEAR or FEAR's characters in any way, shape, or form.
I enjoy hearing from my readers, so please comment or review. Thanks!
