A Life Of Unsaid Goodbyes

In the silence, I hear your voice,
A whisper of what could have been, a haunting choice.
I reached out, but you didn't grasp,
Left with shadows, and a heart that clasped.

Not everyone wants you, the way you want,
A truth that cuts, a wound that won't relent.
I tried to fit, I tried to stay,
But your indifference showed me the way.

Memories linger, like autumn leaves,
Fragile, dry, and scattered by the breeze.
The ache of longing, the pain of being unheard,
A heart that's bruised, a soul that's blurred.

I thought we were a part, a part of me,
But you were just a fleeting guest, it seems.
You took what I gave, but gave nothing back,
Left me with nothing, but a hollow fact.

Not everyone wants you, the way you want,
A bitter pill, hard to swallow, but true nonetheless, it haunts.
I'll learn to let go, to move on, to heal,
But the scars will remain, a reminder to feel.

In this emptiness, I'll find my way,
A new path unfolds, a brighter day.
I'll rise, I'll shine, I'll learn to forget,
But for now, I'll just sit, and let the tears be met.
