Obviously I Had Noticed I assume you are gone So I shall have to pretend Play all that make believe That you are still my friend I placed my trust in you Over the last seven years Behind the pretend smile I shall be hiding my tears I cared so much for you Feelings I could not hide The sad reality it seems I have been swept aside By falling upon deaf ears It created my frustration Always dear to my heart You were my inspiration You never said goodbye Only ever hang in there Had you never realised Silence caused despair Obviously I had noticed Lack of communication Although I cannot let go Without your explanation Hope©2003 |

Explanations are the hard part - This is a very heartfelt piece, Hope - Here's Hoping - Explanation finds its way...  |

You never said goodbye Only ever hang in there Had you never realised Silence caused despair Obviously I had noticed Lack of communication Although I cannot let go Without your explanation I can relate to the silence. This is got to the worst thing a man can do to a woman. Nothingness...I have discussed this with many women. I am glad I did. I thought I was alone in the deadly silence. I am not and neither are you. Perhaps, you shall never get an explanation from his lips, but do not let despair overcome you. Instead, know that you did all you did to keep it together. When communication lacks...there is nothing...nothing. All my best to you. I love your words. I can so relate, and that is the name of the game. You never be silent, my friend. We need to hear you! -Patricia |

Hope, this beautiful poem is so sad with the reality of things. I know exactly how this feels. It's so hard when one of the parties in a relationship refuses to communicate for whatever reason they may think they have. That's why my Love and I try so hard to keep our communication so open with each other. We both know how it feels when someone shuts you out like that. I don't know if you've noticed or not, but I stress the necessity of open communication between couples in a lot of my love poems. It is so necessary for a love to survive. Sorry I got so long-winded, but Hope, I could feel your pain so real as I was reading. Do keep the hope and faith, though.  Heart hugs to you, friend  Ethel [This message has been edited by garysgirl (05-24-2003 07:30 AM).] |
