The Things I Never Said

A tormented heart never revealed
Tears of pain in hidden eyes
A challenged soul masquerades what it conceals
In fancy costumes, there the truth lies


With wine upon lips, the erotic pleasures to hold
Selfish sins of a gold band
Darkness whispers scandals untold
Love set free to the one who holds the left hand


I say now what I never said
A friend in me no better will you find
Should you stray from the path you are lead
Come to me if only in my mind
And let me say the things I never said

Marina, the more I read this one the more I love it. The held back truths, the pain in those emotions. This is a wonderful piece.

James: Thank-you, this is the only poem I have written based on one of my lessons in life.  Every time you close a door always open a window...

Chris: One of the hardest things in life is to set a wrong right and give back what you stole because it was never yours to really take.

Danny: Thank-you  very much for such a vote of confidence.  Since I have only been writing for about a week and only come up with about five poems in my whole life, I can't tell you how much your kind words mean to me.

Marina,
This is wonderful.  So many times we keep the truth but know it needs to be said, even if only for our own.  Great emotion.

Truewomen: Thanks and I think your right.  The important thing is to remember to always be truthful to yourself.

Sea: I think almost everyone has had a situation at one time or another that this can possibly relate too.  Thanks for your input.
