Things Left Unsaid ( A Poem)
Simple shapes that formed a story
A painting in black and white
Whispers of something more
Glimpses in the night
Left unread trapped in cages
Lips will never form the words
Caught between unturned pages
Of these things left unheard
Fairy tale castles promises
Lights we shared in the night sky
A bird with just one wing
That needed another to fly
This is from around jan/feb this year. This is really an attempt to force myself to post a story I wrote a while ago, about badgers, but am so torn about posting, using up the few other things I have so i'll have no choice!

That last thought--a heart breaker
This one is epic, the imagery broke my heart in a good way. I give thanks that our paths crossed at this time on this day. You have made my life a little better. Thank You @calluna
I read this and in my mind played a tune that I forgot because of how ethereal it was... ethereal like what this poem tries to evoke: something (some words) that are "there", but really aren't.
Why are you torn about posting?
It's too much, I have been putting it off for nearly a year. I will post it today, but yeah, for an unprompted story, it is too much, and not quality enough for the sentiment, but still, I should give it a chance, making the most of having an adoptive mamma and being brave :)
Don't be too hard on yourself. Writers are never satisfied with their stuff... I'm like that too with my short stories, poetry... and even my drawings and pic ahahah. Share with us your talent! 😀
The middle stanza is beautiful in its truth.
Brava Cal, it's so difficult to find a post who's not connected to something nowadays.. you're between those few whose blog I visit like a child who's unwrapping a gift.
