The words that once seemed to make sense,
That once flowed easily from your mind,
Now scattered on the page,
Unfinished, abandoned,
Like a story you couldn’t find the end to.
I used to be the beginning you looked forward to,
The verses you could almost taste,
The meaning you thought you understood.
But somewhere, somewhere along the way,
You turned the page and left me behind.
Left me unfinished.
Left me to wonder…
Why I wasn’t enough to keep you reading.
Maybe you thought the words were too much,
Too complicated,
Too raw.
Maybe you couldn’t bear the weight of what you saw in me.
Maybe I was a chapter you weren’t ready to understand.
Or maybe I was just too much of a mystery
You weren’t willing to solve.
But here I am—
A poem still lingering in the silence.
The words that remain unsaid,
The lines that will never find their rhythm,
The meaning that hangs in the air,
Waiting to be finished,
Waiting for someone to hear it all the way through.
I am the question you left unanswered.
I am the thought you pushed aside.
The one you thought wasn’t worth your time,
When all along, I was the poem that could have changed everything if only you had kept reading.
But now, I am just a part of you—
The part you won’t let go of,
The part you don’t know how to finish.
Maybe someday, you’ll return to me,
Pick up where you left off,
And find that I still make sense,
That I still have meaning.
Or maybe I’ll remain like this forever—
The unfinished poem that you can’t seem to forget,
But don’t know how to complete.
Either way,
I’ll be here,
In the spaces between your thoughts,
In the silent pauses you can’t ignore,
A story that never quite ended.
And you’ll wonder…
What would have happened
If you had kept reading.
