Epitaph

It all went so fast:
I should have looked more;
I should have listened,
and, perhaps, sometimes felt more
before
now.

I like it. Simple. True.

Just a couple suggestions...

I would leave out "sometimes". You really don't need it and it loses power (I think). Also, the ending is somewhat redundant, since you suggest "before now" with the "should have". Perhaps an ending of...

I
should
have.


Just my two cents. Enjoyed.
