Reasons Left Unsaid

This is my description of my last breakup.

Some things should just be let go

Don't I know it too well

For when it rains, winds come

And blow everything away

 

How did I know the rain would come

So soon, even though I didn't think

My world would sort of break until

Later, when hell breaks loose

 

I tried to hold on, though I felt odd

Something was wrong; I started to worry

Then my fears were diminished by a hug

I figured everything was okay

 

It turned out I had reasons to worry,

Reasons still left unsaid in my mind

Just when I convinced myself all was well,

You tell me it's over; I resist the urge to give in

 

Why did you think I'd be mad

When I saw it coming in the first place?

Why aren't I crying like some heartsick woman?

It must be due to the reasons left unsaid.

- I can totally relate to your poem especially to this line. I didn't cry in front of my ex during our confrontation because deep inside of me I know that he was hiding something which he preferred to left it unsaid. Nice writing. Please do read my short story The Disclosure. It is somewhat related to this and to my last breakup. :)

Cheers!
