Perhaps most bitter of all
is he who was left behind
while happiness carried on.
Forsaken and Forlorn
his face bears not but scorn.
Secretly he mourns his plight
he cries deeply every night
unable to forget
his mind submersed in regret.
" If only..." whispers constantly
but never sets the man free.
Silently rises sun again
void of hope in its beams
only lights the man
who sounds the silent screams.

This is well crafted and speaks volumes. I have had a number of "if only" over the years and have tears over one in particular. Great job!
thanks mate!
i hope you will be healed of your "if onlys" 🙂 pain doesnt last forever but love does!
Thanks for the kind words
This is a very good poem and like augustus says speaks volumes. Sounds like you may have been cheated on. If i'm wrong, forgive me.. Great write!
haha no not cheated on i think its more like the main character did something he regrets. thanks!
