Failure To Communicate

Failure to Communicate.

I saw people fighting,
couldn’t hear what they said.
They didn’t look twice,
pretended I’m dead.

I figured they’d stop soon,
as they both started crying.
Both cradled their heads,
because of the lying.

They stood there for minutes,
an hour, the day!
They both turned around,
and walked their own way

They hid the pain deeply,
they didn’t say where.
But one winters morning,
they found it back there

‘Help!’ they both shouted,
as apologies they bled.
“Too late, too late,”
the young man said.

“What shall we do now?”
The mother replied
“Nothing dear mother,
we’ve already died.”

Tat is so true, we never know if there will be a tomorrow!

My pleasure!

I commend you for the work well done. The lines in the poem are well stringed together. When one dies, we may never ever be able to bring to reality some things in our life.

That is so true. Also guilt & resentment is a heavy load to carry throughout life, why not lighten the load?

Unfortunately, Too True!

My mother always says, never go to bed angry, I still stand by that.

Lovely poetry @breezin

Thank you so much, I really appreciate your feedback.
