There are thousands of thoughts lying within a man that he does not know till he takes up the pen and writes. ~William Makepeace Thackeray

These feelings
these thoughts,
all bottled up.
Locked in my heart
Written in my mind.
I cannot escape
nor regret.
I cannot forget
the memories you’ve left me.
These feelings,
these thoughts,
I cannot deny
no matter how hard I try.
I am eternally nostalgic.
I am eternally yours.
And I will be eternally silent.
