"That shore" (poetry)

Forum: Writing and Poetry

This is a poem I wrote sometime last year, I'm not a professional writer or anything so feel free to leave feedback haha



There were so many things you never said 
Behind the soft curtain of your sunlit hair 
We'd sit for hours at a time 
But you never told me.

We grew up and grew apart 
Like driftwood on the ocean shore 
I tried so hard for you to join me 
On the sands of that stupid beach.
But further and further you left my side 
"We'll find eachother again one day" 
But the splinters you left in my side 
Never washed out. 
You meant everything to me.

Your eyes were like a forest 
But when I tried to look into them all I heard was your silence
You told me our branches were intertwined 
Our roots would hold us together 
But we both knew it wasn't true 
When storms were headed our way. 

I remember the day not long after we met 
The day you kissed my hand 

And I never forgot that simple touch 
And I'm starting to think 

She was more than a crush.
