left unsaid

Knew it in moment this Wednesday
though she left last Monday
life turned, never to be the same
now my heart knows how it feels
to cherish now, what was then.      

Her days carried me on a breeze
like a book that was never meant to be read
only felt in rippled waves
oh, to turn through those pages again.

Our young song' thrilling plan   
traces left a forever mark on a boy
where only envy's left to the man.

Lesson one, don't be a jerk like me 
fill the pages with everything your heart
has to give..
never regret the things you wished you'd done
and all those wonderful words of love 
you left unsaid.

I especially love the lines, ‘ to cherish now, what was then’ ‘ oh to turn through those pages again’ and the last few lines. Regretful. Poignant. Reflective. Loved it. Thank you for sharing this thoughtful poem. :) Login to Reply
