Unspoken Words

Poem

You looked my way today

Why didn't you say anything?

I just wanted your attention

I need someone to notice me

I needed you

You ignored me to go play your silly games

You didn't want to know the truth

I just needed to talk

Needed to reach out

Needed you to listen

I cried out for you

But you were not there

So I gave up

Thought no one cared

So I walked out of your life for good

I didn't look back

I tried to console the pain

But the pain took over me

Your life seemed so much better without me in it

So I just couldn't take it

So I left this place

Left without saying what was really on my mind

I left with unspoken words
