Your footsteps echoed
Then eerie silence followed
Now I stand alone
An entry for a Haiku contest.

I. Winter
We were good friends
But we both knew
We wanted to be more
So we exchanged
Sweet gestures
And thought that it would last
Or maybe that was just me
Because

II. Spring
Spring came and
You changed your mind
And I was left alone
To think of what went wrong
Because you left
Without leaving an explanation
Or even just a goodbye
Leaving me lethargic

III. Summer
But not because of
The hot summer days
I kept myself busy
Trying to remember
Who I was before
We happened
And day by day
I remembered
But still you lingered

IV. Autumn
On the corners of my mind
But I have become resilient
Just as you said
I would be
When you wrote that letter
Containing an apology
When you didn't have to
Cause I will
And I did
Forgive you anyway
