Without you!

Across the window, I saw a face

As she kept with her friends apace

Talking, laughing, not smiling nay

I wished I could see her everyday

Best of friends were supposed to be

All said so, her and me

In common we had lots, it’s true

Deep trusting eyes, mantled blue

Glinted my eyes when she uttered my name

As did hers, when I did the same

We looked great together, so I was told

After a while though, that news got pretty old

As it’s with all tales, composed by a pen

The cock fell in love with the lovely hen

She baulked as I professed my love

 In a letter, sent with a dove

We are different people, you and me

Heavens would know, I am older than thee

You are a friend and nothing more, said she

Together, we are meant not to be

Being heartbroken, I had just heard before

Until, that moment shook me to the core

Ringing my ears, I heard her words repeat

While I stood at the edge of a peak

The rushing air, the adrenaline pump

I felt bare, as I made my jump

Close to the ground, as fear spawned

To my end and blackness beyond
