I stopped.
I turned to look behind.
I thought… You wanted to say something.
But,
What did I see?
You had already started walking away!
Oh, my heart don’t cry,
There will be
another day, when you’d say
the things I wanted to hear…
Again,
Like a gleaming star,
I stopped, turned to look behind.
I knew I had to say something.
Or probably
You had something unsaid
that might
forever in my heart stay…
But no, it wasn’t destined,
or you dint want it to happen?
My mind asked my heart,
Is this person worth you?
who dint
bother to look behind
the misery of a lover,
bounded by the chains of separation;
Those tears, which were strolling down
the face, he had once adored..!
Why did this happen…
While I was thinking and asking these to myself,
I see,
you have already disappeared from vicinity.
Your essence, your ways, your everything
will still be in my heart!
a heart full of memories and
things unsaid..!
I love this. You have really captured the essence of heartbreak. I love everything about it: the poem, the title, the pictures. Simply everything. 🙂
Thanks Janet for appreciating, it inspires me to do more and better 🙂
Keep dropping by,
Have a nice day!
broken pieces how to collect and hold..before I get them together..
So true, right?
100%
Wonderfully expressed.
Thank you so much!
Have a good day!
The unsaid.. was wonderfully said..
haha… yes, well said!
I like the match between the poem and the images
Thanks Louis!
Glad you dropped by!
Thoughtful and bittersweet. Good question: My mind asked my heart,
Is this person worth you?
Glad you liked reading it Georgia!
Hope you visit again!
Have a good day!
It heart is a dust bowl full of memories, struggling to find new ones while it still is occupied by the old…classy finish.
Thanks a lot 🙂
Have a good day!
Very powerful! and so strong. It truly does capture the heartbreaks that human beings explore everyday.
Greatly written my fellow earthling friend.
P.S I will be posting a new blog today in a couple of hours. Keep your eyes open.

You make the world a better place.
*ROLLING MY EYES*
oh i know that 😉
I am not a poet so do not have the words to express what poetry does for me. I will say your poem (unsaid) makes me think (and feel) how complex we are, how connected we are, how separate we can feel and yet I feel happier for having read it. That means you somehow managed to package some hope and joy amid sadness. Anyone who can do this is wonderful.
Thank you so much for your warm words!
It inspires me to do better!
Glad you like my attempt!
Have a good day!
Cheers!
touching!
🙂 Thank you!
You really had me laying on top of these words! I think we have all experienced them once in our lifetime…
Thanks for reading!!
And yes, we all experience these shades of emotions!
This was wonderfully said and paired with the pictures! So glad you are writing!
Thanks Debbie!
Loved that you dropped by!
This poem is beautiful and so evocative. It clearly expresses what so many of us have endured and still managed to overcome. Thanks for stopping by my blog and liking my post. I look forward to reading more of your beautiful poetry.
Hi Sandra,
I found your blog very inspiring, the way you have overcome fears and difficulties and emerged..!
Keep writing, Love your work!
Have a great day,
Cheers!
Beautiful…a true artist. This is amazing!!
Thanks for dropping by Jesse!
I am humbled by your words!
I agree with your other readers. I was able to connect with your poem and remember those times when that happened to me, but know that their is life beyond those unsaid words. There is life beyond that person who is not worth your effort! Write on!!! Beautiful job.
Thank you for those inspiring words!
It really is endearing when someone connects with what you write!
Thanks for dropping by!
I especially like:
“…the misery of a lover,
bounded by the chains of separation;…”
Wonderful!
Thank you Enri, glad you picked up one of my fav lines from the poem!
