There are so many words left that were unsaid
Thoughts, feelings of the eternal Journey ahead
Now I anguish, at the shield I let surround you
My forlorn shelter, though you, by then, knew
What I could not, would not see, or then accept
Those hands of time in which mortal life is kept
Loosening their grasp, letting you go ever more
Far beyond my reach with no way back to shore
Should I have spoken softly of what was to be?
Or stayed on wisps of hope, my wishful fantasy
Engulfed within your loving arms for all eternity
I could not whisper, what I did not want to see
Time moving more swiftly now, toward finality
With blinded eyes I looked away from destiny
Caressing your soul with words of immortality
The words left unsaid do not matter now or then
Words of love were spoken, that I would say again
~ Shelly Glazier
