Heartbreak

So little you need

To break a heart


Why don't you come see me, 

she said

A heart full of trepidation, 

Hoping for a yes

Conscious, of the long, long miles

between then

And still, hoping, 

For a yes

Because, he had said often, 

How much she meant to him

It should be an exuberant yes

It should be, I was saving up for this

I was waiting for this sign from you


But when he spoke

It was far, far from her plane


Do you think it will make me happy?

He asked


And just like that

She, who had wanted to hear

I will do everything to make you happy

was 

crestfallen
