Tanka

Unrequited love
Misery for the lover
Pain of emptiness
Love to never be returned
Acceptance hard but needed

Lying wide awake
Stressing about all not done
I should be sleeping
Rejoicing in some good news
Nothing gets fixed in wee hours

My heart hurts
It is breaking in two
Not for me, but for you

My heart hurts
Time will pass slowly
One day at a time

My heart hurts
Tears will be shed
As the waiting begins

My heart hurts
It is breaking in two
Not for me, but for you

Yesterday

You can’t go back
Yesterday is in the past
Life changes daily
Tomorrow comes too fast

You can dream and hope
But today is for living
Memories can help you cope
But yesterday is in the past

Be content with your life
It’s what you wanted yesterday
Remember the good times
And tomorrow will be okay.

Yesterday was warm
Tomorrow will be quite cool
Fall – I miss summer

I give you my love
You will take all you can get
I give more and more
You give nothing in return
What goes around comes around
