My closure

A ballade for a break-up

By Some GuyPublished 3 years ago • 1 min read

I still remember the first day

When my heart was beating for you

When the Seville clouds were grey

In the sea of red I saw blue

A day that should have been long flew

Thinking I found my lucky clover

My life no longer one but two

Then you robbed me of my closure

*

This year and a half a ballet

I thought true love made a debut

I wanted forever to stay

Maybe somewhere I always knew

It's just a temporary coup

Goodbye my white cliffs of Dover

Parting for the land of bamboo

Then you robbed me of my closure

*

I was left on some night to pray

For God to give me such a clue

That you would not leave me astray

But you left me with just a view

Of just a cold black screen in lieu

of your back to see it over

A way to see it was now true

Then you robbed me of my closure

*

You say it wasn't me but then who?

If you had the guts to be closer

Something you once promised to do

Then you robbed me of my closure

heartbreak

I kinda suck at writing but I enjoy it

Anyway, here's a dumb little haiku:

The gunslinger draws

His opponent does the same

oh dear, they both died
