unspoken

i have felt many things for you and

there have been so many words that i

have wanted to say

i could not

now i must live with the regret of never

having the strength to let them be known

there is a sense of grief that i have to live

with, the death of what could have been

and now will never be

i burned for you in silence and let

you wonder in the dark

i sit here in ruin, dreaming of you

while you lay there with her

she is better with words than i
