Unsaid Goodbye
She left him without saying the last goodbye.
He felt betrayed for his last questions were still unanswered.
He was left with no answers but only, memories that made his tears fall freely.
Nature joined him in his moment of grief, crying incessantly.
Hopeless he sat by her grave, missing her dance in the rain.

Wonderfully said, realistically sad.
I haven’t lost a spouse/partner to death (selfishly, I hope I’m the one who goes first in my relationship because I couldn’t bear life without him.) My dad died last year. There was a lot unspoken between us. I wanted to talk about it but he was a very stoic person. That was the main issue between us. I wear my emotions on my sleeve, he kept his bottled up.
I enjoyed your piece.
That was sad to hear your experience ๐
Thanks for appreciation! ๐
Aah! That’s heart-wrenching! A beautiful blend of words that created a vivid imagery! Good one, Nibha ๐

Sad and tragic but well written. I could feel his despair.

Ouch…so painful. I can imagine sitting there in the rain for eternity if I lost my husband.
Painful imagination!
There is nothing worse than that final goodbye – and there are always unanswered questions…
Seriously, it hurts to not have answers to those questions!!
that’s a very touching little story
