Hidden Words

Hidden Words

A Poem by Victoria Nakis

There’s a lot I need to say,

There’s a lot you need to know;

Much of this will never be said,

Almost all of this will always be lost.

These feelings I’m harboring are mine;

I’ll keep them from you if I please.

They are of no significance to you,

So why should you learn?

If these things that are hidden

Have no impact on the things going on,

Then saying them aloud is merely a waste,

A waste of my breath and a piece of my heart.

Just know I’ll always be here,

Know that I’ll always care;

But these things you will never know.

Most poems I've read on this site always blatantly tell you something--no metaphors, no symbolism, just straight-written-statements, like some sort of shoddily written confession for the viewers to skim over. This is probably the first that tells the reader nothing at all. And I mean that in a good way.

Good job.

Excellent work!! The poem`s seemed as beautiful as you... full of incense. My fav. lines:

"There’s a lot I need to say,
There’s a lot you need to know;
Much of this will never be said,
Almost all of this will always be lost."

I re-read such lines bunches of times and found the depth which`s all `bout "love" because, it`s in love that ... "there`s "always" allot to say but never or less to know and very and tiredly much to say but everything gets lost". You write quiet deep stuffs. Liked your work!

Rotating thoughts, a true symptom of the blue fly humming...echoing in the room, down the halls of the mind...

Hopefully...the answers arrive in time.

Good work....

About
My name is Victoria. I've lost touch with writing lately, but it's always been a passion. It's my favorite outlet when the feelings I have can't be contained. I'm not particularly good at poetry.. more..
