I Write Poetry

Left Unsaid

By: DancingFox
Written on February 9th, 2013
In my mind I play a thousand lives I will not live
I think a thousand words I will not speak
I dream a thousand kisses I will not blow
They will not flutter down your face and lips
Because this is the unspoken place, the twilight zone.

All these things left unsaid swell up like a storm cloud, hot and stuffy overhead
 
Maybe people like me only live vicarious lives
Maybe I’ll always live in the unspoken place, in the twilight zone
And most days, it’s OK.
 
But sometimes I wish the cloud would burst
So the rain can soothe my burning face
Sometimes I long for the cloud to burst, but it never does
It just fills up with the words and kisses I swallow back.

    it's hard to have closure when things are left unsaid!

      1. Some things are best left unsaid
      2. I am a coward
      3. I lack the ability to go get what I want, because Asperger's makes me socially awkward and I don't know how to date/get a date from someone
      4. I'm aiming to high

      Tick all that apply...
