DAY 7 - LOVE GONE STALE

write a poem in which each line except the last takes the form of a single, declarative sentence. Then, the final line should take the form of a question. With any luck, this will result in poems that have a sort of driving, reportorial tone, but with a powerful rhetorical finish


I am irked and perturbed
I wonder why you don’t call
I am always the one to take initiatives, so
I decide to wait this time
I get bored waiting all this while
My patience is over,
I call and your phone goes busy
This sends me in a dizzy
I wait all over again
Leftover patience goes down the drain.

I instantly pick up when you call, but
I guess you have decided not to speak up
I talk and I chat; like old days you don’t show interest
I wonder what is wrong; you dismiss saying ‘nothing to ponder’
My suspicion cloud thunders:

Has the essence of our love gone stale?

  3. Love is a bloom and it may get drooped and dropped if proper care is not taken . Nice, beautiful composition.
