Echo Of Almost I thought you were my one, true love. Instead you’re my eternal ache. I thought you’d always cherish me, But you caused my heart to break. I thought you were my forever, Not my echo of almost. Now I cry myself to sleep each night, In the house that holds your ghost. I still hear you in the silence. In the spaces you once filled. Every room seems to remember us, As though here, our time had stilled. I don’t know when the shift began, Or what words you couldn’t say. And though you slowly vanished, This pain won’t fade away. I replay every promise, Like they’re written in the air. Trying to understand, How our love could disappear. You’re gone, but not completely. That’s the cruelest part of all. You left your imprint everywhere, In the rooms and on each wall. And though Death didn’t take you, You are nowhere I can find. So I’ll grieve you in the memories, That still occupy my mind. Maybe one day these echoes, Won’t hurt the way they do. But tonight I sit with sorrow… Still...

The Exit Wound I’m falling to pieces I’m standing here broken Where I want to fix us You think that I’m joking I beg you to see me To meet me halfway But instead you walk past Like there’s nothing to say You voice that I’m needy While rolling your eyes You don’t see the truth Just your version of lies I try to reach out But you turn and deflect And I’m left with this silence That feels like neglect I’m tired of aching I’m done feeling small Of loving someone Who gives nothing at all I begged you to fight But instead you let go Now I finally see What I needed to know This isn’t love It’s a cycle of pain And staying with you Would drive me insane So I’ll pack up my pieces And carry them home I may walk away broken But won’t mindlessly roam Because healing begins When the hurting can end So that love that I gave you I now choose to rescind Original Poetry Written By Eryn Dunbar Copyright (c) 8.21.2025

  Canva AI Image Smitten   Some things in life are just forbidden. So I must keep my feelings hidden.  To me, she hung the Stars and the Moon. Every time I think of her, I start to swoon. In my eyes, she’s everything. She’s like no other. She works two jobs. She’s a single mother.  Flowing blonde hair and brown eyes that smile. She’s always willing to go that extra mile. I wish I could tell her how I truly feel. How much her friendship has helped me to heal. I choose to stay quiet and don’t say a word. About how my broken heart has finally stirred. What I want to have with her must be unbidden. So to keep her in my life, I keep my truth hidden. But I have to wonder, if she already might know. That my love for her continues to grow. She’s my greatest blessing. She’s my best friend. And that’s all that matters to me in the end. So I’ll bottle it up and store it on my shelf. I’ll keep these feelings of love to myself. And that’s okay if I have to keep it all furled. Bec...

  Beneath Night’s Sky In every shadow And whispered word I call your name But I am not heard I walk in darkness Or in moonlight Channeling My second sight I search for you In the sunlights beam But I only find you When I dream And to be honest That’s not enough I’m chained to you With this ethereal cuff How am I To let you go When your love Is all I know I’m overwhelmed With such grief I crack and break Like a falling leaf I’m a woodland nymph That can no longer fly I seek you out As I softly cry But you are gone And you won’t return And for your love I will always yearn There’s an affirmation That I need to say So I will chant it Every day “I am stronger Than I look True, you stole pages From my book” “But I’m not weak I’m only brave And I will no longer give More than you gave” Now I let you go And I wave goodbye As I walk alone Beneath night’s sky Original Poetry Written By Eryn Dunbar Copyright (c) 5.9.2025

Canva AI Image The Ghost Of You I’m not gonna tell you a lie. I’m not doing that well. I miss you so damn much. I’m going through endless hell. One day you up and left. I don’t know where you went. I fall asleep holding your pillow. Because it still holds your scent. Left all on my own. Since you have been gone. You made it look so easy. But I just can’t move on. What about your mail? I don’t know where to send it. The way you disappeared. I can hardly comprehend it. I seem to have lost count. Of all the tears I’ve shed. The pain is overwhelming. So much was left unsaid. I didn’t see the signs. You left without a warning. So I sit here alone. Our love, I am still mourning. Now I am a broken shell. One half of a soul. Where once I was complete. Now I am not whole. All the years spent together. Must have been a waste of time. My writing has lost all meaning. My words have lost their rhyme. One day I’ll come to terms. With the fact that we are through. But until that day finally comes. I’...

  I’m So In Love With You I don’t want to be second fiddle I’m not okay being number two But I can’t seem to walk away Because I’m so in love with you You call me when you’re bored When you have nothing else to do And I stupidly answer the phone Because I’m so in love with you You tell me about your breakups How you and her are through And I hang on every word Because I’m so in love with you You tell me that you love me But your words do not ring true But I believe them anyway Because I’m so in love with you I wish we’d never met That you were someone I never knew But I just can’t seem to walk away Because I’m forever in love with you Original Poetry Written By Eryn Dunbar Copyright (c) 2.7.2025

I TRIED I’ve tried hard not to love her It’s not possible in any way To read her words and see her face Is the best part of my day Were friends for life that’s certain A bond nothing can shake I will wait until forever It’s a chance I have to take She may never be ready The words I’ve heard before I attempted to back away Get my foot outside that door The more I pulled things back The more the feelings grew I would risk it all For any chance to be with you My heart is on the line It sits softly in her hand For the slight chance she could see Nobody loves her like I can If it comes tomorrow Or ten years along the way I will be here just for her Every single day So do what you must do No times too long indeed My love will always wait for you It’s only you I need Poetry Written By: Dave Poetry Published By: Eryn Dunbar
