I have often wanted to write you
Just so you know
I am thinking about you
And I still love you so
It’s been awhile now
I’m afraid to let my feeling show
I am so afraid of silence
Or couldn’t bear to hear the word no
It’s hard to breathe at times
Wondering how you feel
Have you really forgotten about me
Or do you love me still
As my heart beats; it aches
Wondering what it would take
To have you back again
I can’t pretend, I miss you so
As long as you are in my memories
As long as I continue to breathe
I won’t be able to let us go
Funny this letter will never be sent
I guess it’s just my way to vent

Hello dear good to see you as always.
I am so glad that I am able to read your poems again. This is another example of a poem that a lot of people can relate too. Don't ever stop writting.

OOOO How are you dear. I am so happy to see you. Thank you fo much for your kind words. I hope you are back to stay awhile.
I great piece on longing. It reminds me a bit of my piece "A Letter." This has a depth of emotion in it. But the last lines have a kick, too!

Hello Lorena, thank you for coming by. And some people we will never forget.
even if the letter will never be sent,
the wind of love will carry its scent..
and the breath of ur love will catch the air,
and thats when life shall be at its best and fair..
ur words sure say a lot about ur emotions.. well written shy..
:-)
Memory is the last thing to let something go. There isn't anything wrong in reliving old adventures for lack of a better word. We've all been there, done that. You're completely "normal".
Hello my dear Shy. I can address you by that, can I?
A very emotive poem, reminds me of those times of longing for my ex, or perhaps it's just a yearning to be loved again on my part.
Perhaps all of us go through this phase, some once, some more than once, perhaps twice, thrice or even more. How many of us have letters that were never ever sent, lying in the depths of our drawers...

Memories can destroy one. I know this to be a truth. For me anyway. And alex. I am not "normal" haha

Aristocrat, you can always speak your mind with me.
Interesting. Maybe it is the yearning to be loved again ha. I like the way you put that. Gave me something to think about. I also like the little poem me.. added. That is great.
Thank you for coming by.

WOW what an awesome little poem. Makes me smile.. Thank you for such sweet words this morning.
Wow, I didn't catch that little nugget of gem hiding with gems. Me sure writes a good one! Somehow, it reminds me of Romantic poetry, and a little bit of... Now let me search for the poem...Give me a while eh..;)
The last lines were so touching
heyy Aristocrat and Shy..
thanx for the generosity with ur praise for lil set of words here.. but the applause sure goes to Shy for having triggered some long lost feelings lost in deep corners of the heart..
not just such letters, but in love there are also a lot of words that we dont really say, a lot of feelings we dont really express.. for the sake of sanctity of love.. sometimes diggin back into such memories.. its sweet and its tangy..

You are so welcome. Sometimes little words mean a lot if one really pay attention. I think you express yourself so well here. And it seems you know me very well ha. Oh wise one aloha to you always.
It may be true that memories can destroy one, but in your case that phase of your life is in the process of ending. The Second Lady has taken you under her wing whether you like it or not. From about September - October, she is in the process of giving you a far from "normal" life.
It is true that you have the freedom to do what you want, but if The Second Lady takes an interest in you, you will find that some of the "zing" has gone in doing your own "thing".
The magic place seems to be OK now.
I can definitely relate to a few of mine that were never sent.
Shy - Your poetry is inspiring. And yet fitting for what I feel today.
Thank You.
*hugs*
Peace,

Oh I hope all is well with you. It gets better promise.
shyloh *hugs* "Unsent". It is like I have written those same letters one thousand times. Very moving, the private thoughts, the feelings that won't subside. Very beautiful those heartstrings that refuse the break...

I guess I better visit you more often to get you here huh ha. Good to see you. I guess everyone has unsent letters and old memories that linger.
aloha
Nice poem!
We've all written words we never sent across. Wonder if that has helped the cause though. I too have a few that're still with me. Unsent. :)

I don't know about these sentiments being "unsent". I think you send them, piece by piece, in a million ways, maybe not by mail.
It's how you are- nothing to be apologetic
about.
Oh that is so true. The more I read this the more I understood. I know you are right. Thank dear one.
Wow!!!
You are quite a writer and poet. came to know you through aristocrat's blog. don't ever stop writing because your words can touch hearts without u even knowing it.
this is one great poem. powerful, poignant and simple. thanks for sharing...
