misunderstood

 

They started conversations nicely
but something she said just suddenly triggered his anger
she wondered what she had said
and  felt guilty.

she cried...
that's all she can do
sometimes, it's her best reply
to cry in silence.

then she'll tell herself
'You'll be fine, don't feel guilty, You're just misunderstood'
nothing was said that never came from her heart
it's just how he takes it.

had she known that what she said
would be the reason for him to get mad
she would never say a word
for only she wants is to have a nice chat and be glad.

Very nice job with this! I can't tell you how close to home this hits right at this moment.

The story is quite nice but I got a little confused. Not with the story itself but with the flow. I couldn't quite place it if it was meant to be a poem or a story. I think both but who cares, you've pieced it together beautifully anyway :P

[Brandee D. Hack]

Good piece. The flow is kinda off though. But a good piece for reading. Very good. I liked the feelings shown here. :)

I really like this. I agree with Coyote Poetry we all say things that we shouldn't. This is very well stated!

[Coyote Poetry]

We all say things we shouldn't. A simple apology should fix the problem. A excellent poem. Feeling of sadness and fear of losing a friend. Ending was correct. Talk it out.

This was a nicely written poem.
I liked the way you added the poem and made it seem like a story through it.
