Whisper in the Dark (Rhyming Acrostic)

Washed up dreams on a shore of terror
Harbor no hope of erasing an error.
Infinite regret of the actions taken
Send the souls to a place forsaken.
Perforated hearts remain from the deprivation
Each a victim of the accidental annihilation.
Regurgitating feelings of sorrow and grief,

In the end I took their lives, so I'm a thief.
Nightly shivers run down my spine;

That spark I saw, that was a sign.
Hatred of myself engulfs my soul.
Everything died, I'm no longer whole.

Darkening skies spread over the city.
Armor was no help, it was a pity.
Remembering is painful, it left its mark,
Killing them left a whisper in the dark.

This poem is about a person being aware of a bomb in a city, and doing nothing about it.
