Words Left Unsent

by HOLLY ARMER   Jan 22, 2006


Deep in my closet
behind clothes and shoes
There's a box put away
filled with thoughts of you

Emails you wrote
lifting my heart
Your words left unsent
that ripped me apart

Poems of love
to brighten my day
A notebook of stanza's
I can't throw away

I retrieve this box
once in a while
Just to relive the past
hoping to smile

But in reading your words
tears fill my eyes
Within each line
a piece of me dies

For misunderstandings
tore us apart
Destroying our friendship
and breaking my heart

    I know exactly how you feel Holly. Great writing woman. I feel the same way about of friend of mine. I loved this part:

    "...I retrieve this box
    once in a while
    Just to relive the past
    hoping to smile

    But in reading your words
    tears fill my eyes
    Within each line
    a piece of me dies..."

    I couldn't have expressed it better.
