HangmanA Poem by Caleb is typing...This... this was hard to write... Thoughts?
_ _ _ _ _
5 letters Playing hangman with costly results 12,478 words it could possibly be ...Can I buy a vowel? You probably though I liked "U" And I did In fact I loved you But just like the uncertainty in my letter choice You were uncertain I was the one for you I picked "U" You picked "N" and "O" One of us was wrong And I found out too late that it was me. I picked the right letter Not the right girl... _ _ U _ _ 4 more letters No more vowels to guess And only 642 five letter words it could possibly be. Choosing from 21 letters is hard? Try risking it all on a girl who's one in a million. To tell someone "I like u" To then be told they were faking it For 4 months Four letters left to guess Four months of not rightness (pun intended) Coincidence? All of this was just a pile of "S" _ _ U S _ Three letters to guess Two right answers back to back And only 48 possible words for it to be. *laughs* Haha look, it's us! Meant to be together Contained in letters All we were All we are Just looking good on paper But don't work together in life A letter I still need to guess a letter But I don't even know who you "R" _ R U S _ 2 letters remain And only 7 words it could be Just two blank spaces on opposite sides of a word Two blank faces Letters apart On opposite sides of a world Distanced only by the wall they both put up The impenetrable fortress they trapped themselves in I don't have enough hair to be Rapunzel But I've locked myself up in this castle Sitting with me, myself, and I Staring at my reflection Reflecting on the memories that have kept me captive Will I find freedom By spilling the "T" T R U S T And just like that Two letters in one guess A word is complete... ...but completely absent from us I trusted you You said you trusted me You broke my heart My trust just went "delete" I sacrificed my heart to love you Sacrificed my time to care Sacrificed my friends to adore you Sacrificed my work to be there And it didn't pay off I'm here with an abundance of pain An abundance of hurt And a fake smile that hides all of it. *cheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeese* Take your photos, I'll be fine Life moves on, in it's time I'll make it through this, I already have But don't expect me to trust you ever again.
