Love Forgotten #poetry
I thought to pick up the pebble of doubt
discovery found it placed in your shoe
I thought to pluck and shake forgetting
insensitivity accompanied the morning dew
I thought to remember starry eyes
in your heart I’m forgotten instead
I thought to look into your winsome smile
a regret that there was “nothing” to be read
I thought to hide the things I missed
in a note you said “I’ve won”
I thought to take back my bleeding heart
alas it was stamped – ”I’m done”







Seems like a bitter valentine verse….more realistic than most verses in cards.
Oh the sappy Valentines are on their way…
i love the opening lines to this piece.
Ahh unrequited love…..guess we all don’t get what we put out sometimes. Lovely write. Also thanks for stopping by my blog and your kind words!

great to meet you Kiana and read your verse
Bitter, beautiful, truthful, painful. Simply lovely!
sorry the next few days are going to be “romantic”
Just don’t post in pink, and I’ll survive! LOL
That was a Damned Hallmark moment there, Leslie :0
Loved it!!
Oh that’s good. Maybe The Damned should go into the greeting card business…
