LOOKING BACK....FRIDAY WRITINGS # 219...POETS AND STORY TELLERS UNITED

 CINQUAIN

she hoped
he never knew
how much she adored him
looking back it was difficult
to hide

he knew
most probably
they always do it seems
he was everything she ever
wanted

its time
to be mature
face  harsh reality
though it may be painful for a
dreamer









never
do it again
looking back  it was a
big mistake with consequences
sadly

love trap
this awful thing
called unrequieted love
useless suffering and pain for
nothing

  3. Unrequieted love must be really hard to endure. Lucky me, a youthful crush was endurable.
    Thanks for the reminder of Lot's wife.

  4. It's always a little extra salt in the wound when the other one knows about it too. Fortunately I haven't had to deal with such things for ages.

  5. Looking back too often can be hurtful. Good choice of song.
