Tacenda
June 11, 2018
The tacenda of thoughts and words left unspoken,
filled me with a guilt that left me wishing
I had told you how I really felt.
I loved you, but I let you slip away.
Our love now only a ghost of a memory,
almost, but not yet forgotten.
If only I had told you how I felt.

I wrote the piece last year in my poetry class. It was inspired by an abstract vocabulary word, Tacnda, meaning something left unspoken, unfinished, unsaid. This applied to a relationship that I had just broken off, and I was inspired to write this piece.
