I loved you in ways that words couldn't capture,
A fire burning silently, unseen, but never fading.
In moments, I saw what we could have been,
A future we both dreamed, but never lived.
My heart whispered your name,
But the silence between us echoed louder.
You were my what-if, my almost,
A story written in the stars but never told.
I loved you with a passion that wasn’t returned,
A devotion that never found its home.
Yet, even as I let go, your absence stings,
A love that never was, but will forever be.
You drifted through my thoughts,
Like a shadow too close to forget,
Too distant to ever touch.
What we could’ve had,
It lingers, like a dream left unfinished,
A love unspoken, but felt in every heartbeat.
The love that never was
Still exists in the quiet of my soul,
A chapter closed but never erased.
And though it was never yours to feel,
It will always be mine,
The love that never was,
But will never fade.

This poem reflects the silent, unreturned love we’ve all felt at some point. It’s about loving someone deeply, knowing that love will never be reciprocated. Even when we move on, some loves stay with us, shaping our hearts and reminding us of what could have been. "The Love That Never Was" is my way of honoring that quiet love, unspoken but never forgotten.
