in Famous Sad Love Poems
In this poignant poem, the poet reflects on a bittersweet encounter with someone they deeply care about. Despite the return, silence reigns over the heart of the other person, keeping them emotionally distant. Through the unspoken words and the absence of a kiss, the speaker grapples with the lingering feelings of longing and unfulfilled desire.
You came again, but silence
Had fallen on your heart,
And in your eyes were visions
That held us still apart.
You came again, but silence
Had fallen on your heart,
And in your eyes were visions
That held us still apart.
And now I go on hearing
The words you did not say,
And the kiss you did not give me
Burns on my lips to-day.
