The Letters We Never Sent

The Letters We Never Sent


The Almost

I wrote your name

then erased it like before

some feelings stay hidden


What If

The words were ready

but my courage stayed behind

waiting for tomorrow


Unspoken Love

I loved you quietly

between pauses and glances

afraid to speak first


The Right Time

I had a letter

but life kept changing its date

so did my heart


Still You

Even when seasons change

your memory finds its way

back into my dreams


The Maybe

A hundred messages

waited beneath my fingertips

none became goodbye


Only in My Head

We met a thousand times

inside my thoughts

never outside them


A Different Ending

If I could rewrite

the night we chose silence

would you stay?


The Silence

Not every love story

needs an answer

endings whisper


The Courage

Send the message

before another sunrise comes

carrying regret


The Goodbye

I never said goodbye

because some doors close softly

without a sound


After You

The heart learns slowly

how to hold empty spaces

without breaking again


The Unsent Letter

Folded beneath dreams

my feelings wait in the dark

asking to breathe


What Remains

The letter stayed hidden

but love became a story

I healed
