Hey!

Another poem I wrote last year, not about anyone in particular, but as I wrote it I pictured Demyx as the guy, oddly enough, so yeah, I figured I may as well upload it here; you don't have to think of Demyx as the guy if you don't want to, I've got no idea who the girl is, or if you're into yaoi it doesn't have to be a girl xD

Oh, and the written version of this is five pages long, it's a very long haiku xD


He bounds up to you
A huge grin is on his face
Joyous as ever

He goes where you go
Following you like a sheep
His speech never stops

He eats lunch with you
Not bothering with chewing
It amuses you

Afterwards he thinks
He looks like he's zoning out
Deep thought on his face

He nods to himself
Giving the room a quick glance
He looks up at you

Hope is in his eyes
He opens his mouth to speak
"I love you," he says

At first you're confused
It's evident on your face
Then you are surprised

He smiles sheepishly
"I always have," He mumbles
Hand in his pocket

You frown and look down
"I…" You don't know what to say
You can't look at him

His hand reappears
In it is a little box
You start to worry

You sigh and look up
Instantly regretting it
His expression hurt

He is too hopeful
You know his heart will soon break
You don't want it too

He beams up at you
You try to smile weakly back
This is just too hard

He opens the box
You meekly glance into it
Your fears are confirmed

In it is a ring
Small, but it's still beautiful
It shines in the light

He looks down at it
"Please," he looks back up at you
"Will you marry me?"

Your weak smile is gone
"I…" You sigh, "I'm so sorry,"
You hold out your hand

He sees your finger
On it is another ring
His smile is gone now

"Oh," his face then drops
You frown and look down again
Hoping he's okay

He is heartbroken
It's evident in his eyes
And also his voice

"Congratulations,"
You notice his voice cracking
He holds back a sob

You look up at him
Reaching out to his shoulder
You place your palm there

"Will you be okay?"
He flinches, and then he nods
"Mhmm," he mumbles

He sighs, and then stands
"Well, see you around, I guess,"
You feel bad for him

Now you watch him leave
A single tear on his cheek
Another on yours

You stay for awhile
For hours, you sit alone
Thinking about him

Should you have done that?
Was it the right thing to do?
Break his heart like that?

Only time will tell
You hope he'll forget it all
You hope he's okay

Tomorrow you'll call
You want to know he's okay
He doesn't pick up

Later you'll go over
You'll knock on his door and wait
He won't answer it

You sigh and go home
The next day you'll try again
But you'll have no luck

Every day you try
For weeks, even months
Still, you have no luck

And then, one morning
You'll stop and think about him
You'll think long and hard

And then realize
You'll call off your own wedding
Because you loved him

Then you'll keep searching
You're desperate to find him
But you never will

You'll cry and you'll cry
Until you run out of tears
Wishing he'd come back

You'll wish you knew then
You were making a mistake
Then you'd have said yes

Then you'd be happy
But it won't work out that way
And your heart will break

Oh yes, it will break
The same way his did back then
And it won't be healed.
