Do you even notice – the sadness in my eyes
The silent tears I cry
Do you even notice
That I know
You will never change
Do you even know
That I know
That I have already begun letting go
Do you even notice
how I left my heart broken
and how I didn’t leave anything unspoken
And yet
Nothings changed
And it’s still not the same
I just am lost in between
What we were
And what we are
Which is all so confusing
And consuming
Do you even notice - the sadness in my eyes
The silent tears I cry
If I slip away without saying goodbye
Would you even miss me
Would you even notice
if I was gone

Thank you STEPHANIE ~ you are an elegant poet and such a fragrant Lady ~ it is a tragedy that you have to write such a poem. Some Men are mad and do not value the Love of a Lovely Lady. As you know ~ They do not notice ~ Sadness ~ tears ~ broken hearts ~ confusion and even parting ~ so so sad. Thinking of you and praying for you ~ Love BRIAN
This poem is about suicide. We recently lost someone very young to this horrible event. I believe all people consider this at some point or another and I feel like there is pattern of thinking that escalates these thoughts. This poem is those thoughts and unanswered questions.
I would just like to say that this is a wonderful poem, though sad, it was so full of emotion and I could just feel the pain. you are a wonderful poet Stephanie.
A very well done write...great job
Lovely poem, but I did not get the suicide. I saw it as breaking a relationship, which I admit suicide does permanently. Yes, there are subtle signs of serious depression we miss. And there are other signals that when we reflect back, we kick ourselves for not answering the obvious cry for help.
