Unrequited, Unspoke


It was private glances before it was saved up, unspent dowries. That was before the unsent gifts, the finished portraits under heavy canvas, sketches crossed out and erased, missed courting appointment, unsent letters, flowers in gardens left unpicked, confessions left unsaid. Now it's an overflowing notes app.
