Unspoken

Words left unspoken fall upon deaf ears
Yet sometimes say more kept in silence
Betrayal of those given their all to you
Slashed away in actions not words
A turn of the head with lips still sealed
Was the only thing you needed to say
I saw the shame across your face
But flickered away so quickly
Message received loud and so clear
No time soon shall be forgotten

About this poem:
Not about a past relationship, just a release for me to put down in words. More a sadness, due to lack of respect.

Hi, CloudySky,
Yet sometimes say more kept in silence... Life is filled with words and silences. Both have the power to inflict and heal. Thanks for sharing for words with us.
