I met a man
Who touched my soul
His body young
His heart was old

He could have been
A friend of mine
If, I had, but
Remembered in time

That, lines crossed
Can’t be erased
And so now
I find I face

A loneliness
That runs too deep
For words speak
Or sleep to heal

I am broken
By thoughtlessness
I won a prize
But lost the best.

So now I face
Bleaker days
I had some fun
And now I pay

I feel a dominating note of regret in your poem. The pain is tangible.It's beautifully written.
Well done
