I write 'I miss you'

one more time

one more time

between the lines

using every word

to simplify

to say goodbye

without reply

its hard you know

trying to leave you alone

so I'll write a note

and fold it slow

some hearts

to mask the tears

that dripped between

our wasted years

and I'll write 'I miss you'

in a cursive fashion

our whirlwind romance

turned to disaster

no chance for us

to live a happily ever after

I'll sign my name

to seal the deal

and wonder if

your love was ever real

Meaning

sevi: love in Turkish

A couple months ago I was dating someone. We lasted a fairly long time, longer than my last relationships at least. She ended up cheating on my with 3 other guys. The guys and I are now friends and laugh about it but it hurt all of us when it happened. Honestly, I don't know how I fell for her games but thats besides the point. She only knew Turkish and Polynesian. I personally liked Turkish more so we used that as our primary language of communication, hence the title in Turkish. This poem was originally written from the perspective of me, then I became friends with the guys and we all wrote about it. We made this poem together, and burned it. The burning was on accident actually... we're clumsy. But it was an odd mashup of French, Turkish, and Polynesian so I translated it in my free time, which I have to much of, today as I figured it'd work decently well for this challenge.
