Disappointment

A Poem by Liz Alexander

A conversation between friends, a confession of past friends.

Disappointment

There I go again

Ran my mouth

Took a chance

Stated a fact

I had liked you

A serious moment

Flashed between us

While everything was busy

Around us

You had stood up

Pang of pain

Rang in me

Memories

Flood the surface

Deja vu of rejection

Questions of why

Why the crush vanished

Peak of wonder curiosity

Texting back my reason

Brushing thoughts away

Whole truth?

Why would I lie?

From time to time

Emotion flutters signaling

Infatuation stirring again

Confirmation of a fact

I knew already

Decision made by you

Leaving, I did too

Frustration shocked me

Time after time

Hangouts seem broken

Holes between bricks crumble

Seconds before…

Walls jump right back up

Because I went there again

Opened up

Déjà vu stabs silence

Plans; looked towards

Broken in a matter of seconds

Apology left airborne

Its fine

May come mouthed

Does not stop

Disappointment

I will go again

Run my mouth

Facing disappointment

Faint acceptations

Stirs Infatuation

"Déjà vu stabs silence
Plans; looked towards
Broken in a matter of seconds"
This is good poetry. A epic story in the poem. I like the above lines the best. Deja vu can be a pain in the butt. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry. Sometime silence is golden.
