Gone (mixture of hiakus and tankas)
May 12, 2010
we walked and we talked
About the things on our hearts
You held my hand tight
You moved in way to fast
You have lost my attention
But then i went back
to you. what is wrong w. me?!
should have known better!
we walked and talked
aboutt things on our hearts
you held my hand tight
promising not to let go
i fell for that stupid lie
the truth stared at me
then you told me what i feared,
"i have a girlfriend"
i felt very numb.
it all happened to quickly
you were gone.again
