Broken

Whispered ambiguities
Resurrecting dormant antiquities
Of realities best left unstirred.

Nudged obsessions
Tickling pending confessions -
Will regrets remain deferred?

Massaged conspicuities
Soften those memories
Of loss, no more heard.

The heart and mind heavy with so much that will remain unstirred, unsaid. Beautiful piece.

Indeed.....you summed it up perfectly. Too often we cry to have a voice, but it takes more guts to have a voice, and not use it (appropriately).

Interesting one. Again, I think your choice of words is on point. I think you are really talented.

I jested this up into a sum, of things undone ;-)
I see this as controlling thoughts that have been tamed into peace.
Quite inspirational !

Regret...to keep us humble? The Pain of it is a story we replay in our minds. Nicely composed SV :)

Confessions are a monkey off your back but will they become regrets later on to some? Deferred? I haven't heard that word since the poem a dream deferred. I like your style of writing here. Some may be put off by the big words but they somehow seem to be necessary.

Thanks for commenting. I agree that certain words may be off-putting in a poem particularly when they as so obscure that one requires a dictionary. I tend to not put too much thought into my poems and merely write down whatever surfaces in my head, and when I think it works, I write it down.
