Unspoken

by Christel Crews

There were words not spoken
Spanning time till one morning
She awoke and realized
She could not remember those
Simple words
Spoken softy
Saving her

From herself

There were words not spoken
As days turned to weeks
Another heart grew cold
She could not remember
His eyes gazing longingly into
Her own
Forgotten
Mundane
Pondering

Her sad, secluded state

There were words not spoken
When she could not hide behind
The fake smile she contrived
The tears fell for she saw
For the first time
That she
Settled too low
Then reached to high
Only to have
Her heart broken
One too many mistakes

Author's Note: to be honest with you, this began as something else entirely and ended up in this state... i'm not sure if it makes sense, please let me know

Sometimes we try and mold them, but they always end up exactly they way they were intended ~ unspoken. And somtimes we know what/who "they" are, sometimes we don't. I really love the way this made me feel. Definitely one of my favorites. Thanks. ;)
