Poetry: The unsaid word

The time has passed for speeches
no audience now to hear
unspoken words are many
in hindsight all too clear

Words left unsaid are haunting
like ghosts who make no sound
to those who did withhold them
they will forever hang around

If not released in time of need
they hover on the wind
and blind our forward progress
with guilt that lies within

So speak now while it's time
be not shy today my friend
for unsaid words remain behind
when others reach the end

    Is to stand
    His position

    In the peaceful duty
    Placed on

    The Word

    Why is it used so openly?
    Carelessly it often breaks hearts,
    and brings about sadness
    to all who believe in its worth.
