When did the last laugh dance?

The world I present in "Unrequited", the last poem in this book, is one I fear. Even though sometimes, when we're upset or lonely or grieving, we wish we didn't have to feels these things, that we could just block them out, all emotion is important, and I believe emotion to be the aim and root cause of poetry, for me at least. So I hope that whatever you think of the poems in this book, you feel something when you read them. Enjoy!
