Unheard

Should my declarations so proudly proclaimed

 

Remain

unheard

unacknowledged

unattained

 

I will only speak quieter....

 

Caught in silent withdrawal

 

For stillness

represents strength

And inaction

strong character

 

For every lesson learned

Was earned through error

Correction

comes over time

 

In the meanwhile you will find

 

I reach out only

to steady myself

Not to lean on you

Or see what you would do

 

I don't require or so it would seem

The care and desire you once feigned

 

Unattainable

is not my desire

 

Silence used

to quiet my mind

Searching my emotions

Only to find

 

My declarations

reverberate here

Sincerely

evaluated

over time

 

My decisions may stand stark

unanswered questions

sequestered in the dark

 

Should my declarations so proudly proclaimed

 

Remain

unheard

unacknowledged

unattained

 

Still and silent as the night

Refocus myself to make it alright

 

Until the time..............

 

It comes back around

In quiet examination

Is where I can be found
