A Funny Story

love.

It's funny cause i don't even remember why i fell for you

maybe it was because you made me feel so special 

the way you looked into my eyes,

the way your hands touched mine,

your little tricks to make me laugh.

we never had the long chats but

being with you was always so short and sweet

i thought we had something special

but it was me who was seeing things differently

cause when you hugged me i was 

awkward yet comfortable , happy and embarrassed

so many feelings rushed into that one touch ,even if just for a second 

but for you it was just a cold hug.

And that's what hurts the most.

A love for haiku poetry began in college, inspired by its simplicity and depth. The book Blue Harlequin captures these moments beautifully. Read the full article to explore the essence of haiku poetry: https://aoidemagazine.com/what-is-haiku-poetry/

I thought you are writing in a happy stance of Love but it came out blunt

no worries. I loved the twist and 5 minutes seems worth it.
Sorry for the delay in reviewing it.
I skipped reading & writing for a bit so!

In starting I was thinking may be you are talking about your loved one's. But twist in last line is fantastic, well written poem.

You title it as ' A Funny Story' and end it with how it hurt you. To feel hurt and still see it with a good sense of humor is a wonderful attitude to have.
Well written!

A very nice expression to the feeling of love and attachment. It's to be felt and it's to be loved. Love is something extraordinary that not many people are lucky enough to experience. Good writing.

Love can be pretentious and yes Funny. You can smile of the funny moments together and whispering(love) for passing by.

It is funny how in little time word love could get into action and take over us.
Perfect piece Malishaka.

When its too much.. There's an outburst... It happens often when this creepy feeling called love intervenes with life... Loved the poem..
