Unveiling Secrets: A Journey of Heartbreak

I once thought I was your confidante,
That you told me everything,
But now I see that I was wrong,
That I was just another fool.

You tell others things you’ve never told me,
Secrets that you keep close,
And I am left in the dark,
To wonder what I did wrong.

Am I not important to you?
Am I not worthy of your trust?
Or is there someone else you’ve chosen,
To take my place in your heart?

I don’t know the answers to these questions,
But I do know that I’m hurt,
And that I’m no longer sure,
If I want to be a part of your life.

The silence between us grows louder each day,
A wall built of secrets and whispers untold,
I watch from the sidelines as you drift away,
Leaving memories turning fragile and cold.

So I will step back from the shadows you cast,
And guard the small pieces of heart that remain,
No longer a prisoner to what’s in the past,
Learning to walk through the quiet and pain.

The Shadow in the Room

/ Nancy Ann Creed / Leave a comment

That’s how you see me, a shadow in the room,
A silent fixture amidst the gathering gloom,
Tracing the edges of a space I cannot claim,
A ghost in the hallway, a face without a name.

My words mean nothing, they drift like falling leaves,
Unheard and unvalued, while my spirit grieves,
I speak into the vacuum of your cold indifference,
Finding no echo, no bridge, no deliverance.

My heart means nothing, it’s a pulse, a quiet plea,
For a glimmer of worth that you refuse to see,
Beating against the cage of your neglectful gaze,
Lost in the fog of these hollow, endless days.

You do what you want, in your self-centered tide,
With little care for me, or the pain I must hide,
Sweeping through the hours with a callous disregard,
While I am left to mend what you have torn and scarred.

Significance fades, I am sealed by fate,
An afterthought wrapped in isolation’s state,
Waiting on the periphery of your vibrant world,
Like a banner forgotten, forever left unfurled.

Until you need something, a favor to lend,
Then I am important, a convenient friend,
Suddenly the shadow gains a sudden, sharp light,
And I am summoned briefly from the edge of the night.

But as soon as your hunger for utility is fed,
Then I am gone once more, words left unsaid,
The transaction is over, the warmth begins to cool,
Leaving me standing here, a discarded tool.

Discarded and forgotten, in the dark I stay,
Watching the slow erosion of my soul each day,
A cycle of presence that only serves your whim,
As the light of my value grows increasingly dim.

A Ghost in the Neon Hum

A Ghost in the Neon Hum

City’s plus, a symphony
Footstep, whispers, horns’ blare,
Unseen, unheard, a ghost I roam.
I drift through crowded avenues where life flows fast,
A silhouette of a story, a remnant of the past,
You pass by, thoughts afar,
Never noticing the shadow rear,
My name, once a melody, now fades,
My voice is just an echo in the concrete and the stone,
A quiet plea for presence, in a world I walk alone,
Neon lights, a path aglow,
Darkness cloaks, from sight I hide,
Creature of night, moon and stars my witness,
The electric haze illuminated the distance in your eyes.
While underneath the starlight, my true self quietly dies,
Did you see me, truly see?
In memory’s weave a thread for me?
Or just a ghost, haunting your mind’s edge?
A lingering impression of a soul you didn’t keep,
Lost within the shallow world while I am buried deep.
