Somonka style
Somonka--Japanese style of poetry-two tankas with a question then an answer
why did you leave me
we had so much in common
or so I had thought
my soul longs deeply for you
I can’t move on without you
my love for you died
our marriage was in a rut
I need a new start
I need excitement and change
you offered me neither one
