An envelope

Allie561

I left him a note

He never knew what I wrote

It sat among the flowers

Untouched for many hours

I wish he could read it

But he lay in a dark pit

    Is that dark pit a grave? Nicely written

    • Allie561

      Indeed it is Soren, glad you could piece it together. Thanks for reading.

        You are most welcome

        Allie, this is quietly heartbreaking…there’s something about how simple it is that makes it land even harder. That feeling of something left unsaid just lingers. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

          Thank you Tristan for your insight. I’m glad that I could convey that emotion although it’s a shorter poem.

            that is so sad - and so well described in such few words

            • Allie561

              Thank you for leaving feedback, I’m glad that the heaviness had an effect on you.

              • NafisaSB

                you are welcome - and hope the veil of gloom and heaviness lifts soonest
