But it makes me think of the concept of men and women, how differently we recieve things. Men fall in love with a woman's beauty and women fall in love with what a man's words.
Hi A. Hartdegen, thank you for sharing your thoughts! Yes, this poem is from a point of view of a man. Now, your comment has made me think to write a poem from a perspective of a woman in a similar situation. My poem 'Someone Shall Come Along' has a young girl's perspective, but not this situation. Thank you for inspiring me with your comment and your own creative writing!
Beautifully captures that bittersweet ache of unspoken love Well written
Thank you for the compliment. You are right, bittersweet ache is where I was going with it.
Very beautiful 😍

So women wear makeup and men lie.
I don't make the rules. Lol
