What She Didn't Say

What she didn't say

Is every night she would stay awake

And write down quotes

From things you said


What she didn't say

Is every day she would smile while day dreaming

Of past conversations

That had occurred


What she didn't say

Are some of the most important things

That you should have known

All along


What she didn't say

Is she didn't even blame you

For anything 

At all


What she didn't say

Ended up in her notebook

With curled edges

And torn pages


What she didn't say

Is "I love you"


And what she didn't say

Has already passed through

And faded

In her mind


Because what she didn't say

Was trapped

And withered and died

In the end.
