Letter unwritten

Hey guys :) first love poem I'm posting. Get used to them, i write loads!

LETTER UNWRITTEN


Thick edges rough enough to cause pain.

It lies on the desk, waiting patiently

For its perfect blankness to be spoiled with

Crimson ink and angry words.


In your mind the scene replays

Black seal, broken by eager hands that

Falter as the letter falls to the ground

Tears of the one you used to love wet the paper, the ink runs.


But when you wake

The blankness stare back at you

It slaps you in the face

No ink or words, not yet.

And the pain is yours, for now.


No thought of forgiveness stains your mind.

You know there will be no letter -

You can never hurt the one you love.

Like ink stains; she never goes away.
