his name escapes my lips
and i stumble
wishing i had muttered
or even mumbled
then this would have been easier
to cover up
and i would not
have to see the shadow
of sorrow darken your face
and still look away
as if nothing has
been said.

I love moments of emotion captured in verse. It is like a photograph of a feeling.
All elegant and multi layered – just the way I like them. Well done Que. You should seriously think of compliling and publishing these in eBook version – Eric 🙂
my kind of poetry.. clear, concise and multi layered. the expression thoughts and emotions is superb.
So simple in the dark sorrow, my favorite quote is, “I would not have to see the shadow of sorrow darken your face”, because you tilt your head down whenever you are sad. It’s a different way to express, i love it! I’ll be following 🙂
