Jeremy Smith Poet Acrostic

If I Only Knew Why

If I only knew why
Fog covers, our future that's to come

Irrecoverable, are the years that have been lost

Optimistically I wish, for things to get better
Non-respondent is what you are, when asked what is the problem
Lifelessness is the state, our love dwells in
Yourself is all you care about

Kindhearted, were my intentions and expectations
Negativity drowning our souls
Emotionally tattered and torn
Willingness, from you to show love has departed

Worthless, is the way you make me feel
Heartbreak, is what you have caused
You chose hatred over happiness, and I don't know why

John Hamilton May 3, 2017 at 5:26 PM Well done Jeremy, looks like Acrostic suits your style, no syllable counts per line!

Darren White May 1, 2017 at 10:44 AM You did really well :)

Darren White May 1, 2017 at 12:08 AM This acrostic (that is what it is), is absolutely wonderful. You did a great job. Your life must be difficult, for reasons I do not understand, but keep on writing, that helps. Jeremy Smith May 1, 2017 at 12:16 AM Thank you, I did not know that this was acrostic. Today was my first go at it. I'm glad you liked it!
