UNSAID
She's giving herself
But he never sees
So invisible she becomes
Invisible she leaves
He dreams of her
Once in a while
Thinks she's pretty
But just for a while
She wonders if
He'll ever think
See her as more
Than a friend in ink
He does write to her
Says, "Love you my friend"
Hopes she'll say, "I love you too"
That together they can mend?
They part on good terms
though unsatisfied
The little things were said
But big things lurk inside
Unsaid
Years later
They meet again
Married? no
Still waiting for that "One"
They say
That chance encounter
Led to more
In success and good health
But big things lurk inside
Unsaid
Drifted apart again
With little things always said
But love untold
The big things left unsaid
One day again
(Even fate tries its hand)
They begin to talk
Find some memories lost
Childhood mischief
Teenagers' loss
Adulthood travails
Yet no love?
"There was but..."
"But? Now?"
"It's dead and gone"
"Sorry for your loss"
That was the last time
They were twenty five
They moved on but still
Looked back on their lives
Could they have made a difference?
Was it a little thing missed out?
Was it big things that were said
And little ones that lurked
Inside. Unsaid.
