Unsincerely Yours

Neville

Unsincerely Yours

 

She never did say goodbye, or post him

those letters she claimed

to have laboured and lost so much sleep over

    I know - KP wrote me some letters when she was away having Botox (I'm cruel to her. lol) She said they got lost in the post, but I doubt it.

      KP .. your nuts or somebody else 's ....................................... for sure 🙂

      There's a lot to be said for a clean and final ending. Often an exchange of iffs buts and maybes is nothing more than a time wasting pre-cursor of the inevitable anyway. Save them for the dream world, it's less painful.

        I sincerely thank you DA for keeping me in the frame sir ........ Neville

        I don't know, dear Poet
        if life has taught me anything,
        its to treasure
        the sharp, permanent goodbyes
        seemingly overnight;
        where as those murky, elongated separations
        with their left-over bruises
        that linger
        only frustrate, for longer..
        (somehow at just the title
        I was already irked, by the memory's
        it made me recall, names
        I had imagined forgotten
        waiting, in my mind's lost box
        to prick, those rummaging tendrils
        trying, to meaninglessly - recall)
        another great shorty, and one
        I'm sure quite a few can relate to

          another much appreciated visit accompanied as always with its own thought provoking footprint .. cheers L.B .... N

          Indifference walks off and can leave often - methinks good riddance to deliberate and insincere behaviour - -- get wise to those who may never say a simple goodbye - -- dunno why Nev but this for me was a right-rousing read ................x

          • Neville



            thanks Fay ........................................ lessons learnt eh'.................................... maybe 🙂 x

            Another imprint you left
            Some words untold
            Some buried inside
            Some knots never opened
            Some untended wound
            Never knew
            Never understood in life
            But they hurt the most
            The uncalled goodbyes

            • Neville



              I would copywrite that review note of yours up there before some one nicks it ............. bless you my friend for that delightful & generous gift .... Neville

              That isn't a poem. That's just a sentence.

              • Neville


                Poetry, like any other art form is much like beauty .. subjective .. in effect, in the eye of the individual beholder and whilst everyone is entitled to their own opinion of course, I welcome all comments, so thank you for yours ..

                • Sharkylang

                  No it isn't. Poetry by definition requires meter, structure, and rhyme.
                  That is a prose sentence.
                  Thanks for destroying the art.

                  • Caring dove

                    Why does poetry have to rhyme ? I never rhyme , I dislike it

                    • Neville



                      of course it doesn't have to rhyme .. it does of course require structure of some form or another, but that may be determined by the particular style of poem, some of which are very strict while others are not so .. Many other factors including those of a historical and or cultural nature might also come in to play .. it seems to me our young so called quantum physics student is just trying to sound cool or make a name for himself .. but is really a bit of an antagonist prat ..

                      I gotta meet her again! I can't stand it without her!
                      I mean this lass - not KP - I can't live WITH her! lol.
                      Do shut up sometimes Orchi. lol.

                          • Doggerel Dave

                            Maybe I'm just not that deep - I've lingered with past relationship for years....... Know how to say a quick final goodbye when the need arises, though....

                            • Neville



                              good to hear DD because I also hear you can't teach an old dog new tricks ..................... ta tho and truly .. Neville

                                But maybe she smiles to herself at thought of him. 🤔

                                • Neville
