i write a million words, erase thousands more,
trying to express what I feel,
yet I have never penned a single poem,
that I could ever call ideal.
I have ten unfinished poetry,
twenty unsent letters I hold,
thirty topics I couldn't bring myself to write,
and a fifty stories that remain untold.
"no one stays", i shout aloud
and so he left too in devastation,
and I am here left with poems
i once wrote in his admiration.
A hundred poems sit waiting to be posted
many wounds yearning to be revealed,
but none of them have ever explained
the pain i have always concealed.
now, I am a graveyard of unspoken words,
a museum of poems that no one reads,
words fails to heal my wounds
so on paper, I quietly bleed.
