remorse : A gnawing distress arising from a sense of guilt for past wrongs.

If you feel remorse you must feel guilty of doing something wrong. I understand what you are feeling. It's not remorse.

Remorse is as close to the description that I feel ..... not the definition you quoted, Magic ..... but look at definition #2

re·morse (ri môrs)

noun[*]a deep, torturing sense of guilt felt over a wrong that one has done; self-reproach[*]pity; compassion:

I like the word compassion. I think that might be as close to how we feel as words can describe.
