Since I can't make myself write much these days, here's a poem (actually three) I wrote in the good old days....
Trilogy of Unbroken Silence
1.
But I fear that I may not
Be able to say the words aloud
I have something to say to you
But I fear that you have
Hardened your heart against me
I have something to say to you
But I fear that you will
Hear me and not listen
I have something to say to you
But I fear that you will
Tear my heart, bit by bit
I have something to say to you
But I fear that you will
Walk away and never return.
2.
I am sorry
For not loving you
I am sorry
For I broke your heart into pieces
I am sorry
For not being able to trust you
I am sorry
For not telling you what I feel
I am sorry
For I know that one day, I
Will walk away and never return.
3.
Sorry no longer
For the love that I couldn’t give
Because I know now that
Your love was all a lie
Sorry no longer
For breaking your heart
Because I know now that
It’s made of stone
Sorry no longer
For not trusting you
Because I know now that
For you, trust has no meaning
Sorry no longer
For not telling you what I feel
Because I know now that
You never really did listen
Sorry no longer
For walking way, never to return
Because I know now that
You’d never stop me.
