My Happiness!

A nonet of a girl named Felicia.

By Pono AkinaPublished about a year ago 1 min read
The smile of happiness saying it's last goodbye!

Happiness...said you always loved me?

How our words are "sword" all mixed up.

They say that "Love pricks the heart",

I never knew the prick

that touched my warm heart

was the cold sting

of your words,

saying...

Bye...

heartbreak

    Cold sting of words. Only those on the receiving end of that knows how terrible it is. Your nonet was so poignant and I loved it!
