awesome typography!

Yes, the only thing that reads is 'swallow' and that works against what I'm going to assume is the intent of the design. If that *is* the intent of the design, well, ew.

"that aching regret" is readable, but probably because I read the title. I don't understand the eyes in the 'a' and 'o'

There are things in life you regret, deep down inside and through it all you try to get through it with a smile on your face.
You learn from the past and you grow.
You become a better person, whether it be sooner or later.
It's a simple message done up beautifully.
Just look at it.

I love the idea, very very much. But it is hard to read so it looks like a B.J. shirt.
But PLEASE work on the idea as I love the concept.

I could read "That Aching Regret" without looking at the title.
It's lovely.
But the way it looks like "SWALJOW" is annoying.
