Love Poem: Moving On

Moving On

You didn't see me there;
i spotted you and turned,
although my anger burned.
I knew you wouldn't care,
and would ignore my glare.
So many lovers spurned!

So much I longed to say -
those bitter words unsaid
were tumbling round my head,
my thoughts were on the day
you turned and walked away
(I wished that I were dead).

But now I realise
it's pointless to despise.
