Things Left Unsaid

by ShootingStar179   Mar 8, 2007


When a man cried over a girl,
He was kind, gentle with a love so strong,
She broke his heart and did not look back,
Why could he not understand his love for her was wrong?

This boy so sweet and true,
Never knew there was another girl,
Watching and waiting,
Hoping a love for her would unfurl.

Always in the background,
Loving this guy
With all the compassion one can hold,
Praying for love from the man in the sky.

Why does it hurt so?
She asks with tears in her eyes,
I love him so much,
I cannot help but cry.

The pain washes away being replaced with numbness,
Just wishful thinking about her hurt friend,
If only she had had the strength to tell all,
Finally the sting of rejection would end.

One thing was left unsaid,
My dear friend I just wish you could see,
There is only a forgotten girl who truly loves you,
And that one girl is me.

    I really liked the ending of the poem, it tied it together really good. A greatly penned piece full of emotion, I loved it.

    "Why does it hurt so?
    She asks with tears in her eyes,
    I love him so much,
    I cannot help but cry."

    ^^ That stanza was amazing. Keep up the great writing.

    5/5 (:

    Oh wow.. that was an amazing poem. I can totally relate to this poem, because I was going through the same thing at the beginning of this year. It was so hurtful, because he didn't even know I existed, and yet.. I like him so much. But anyway, enough about me, and more about the poem. The poem was GREAT!! The flow and the wording was really well, awesome choice of words. It's so filled with raw emotion, it just makes your heart ache and want to reach out to the girl in this poem, because at one point or another, we all have a love like this one. Its good that through out the whole poem you keep a constant theme of the girl wishing he would see that she loves him and that he would love her too. Its a wonderful write! Great job, you have a lot of talent as a poet, I hope it takes you far! 5/5
    Much Love,
