Demoted to Acquaintances: A Tragic Almost Love Story

From strangers to acquaintances
Quickly to friends
Promoted to Babygirl
Suddenly it’s the end

Back to “acquaintances”
It hurts not loving full out
The inauthenticity pains

Some tears shed daintily
Never releasing real rains

The emotions gone
This too has passed
Hello, acquaintance
No good or bad shadow cast

No trace
Nothing but a glimmer of memory
A dust particle dancing out of site
No need for any remedy

The bruises have faded
All physical signs of exchange gone
The cords of connection severed
Soon writing the last song
