Silver Ribbon

All these love poems I wrote about you

Are making me sick

Looking back

It’s really quite comical

I’m laughing

Laughing like a mad man

I can’t believe
That I believed

That you were different

I’ll forget the sound of your laugh

I won’t be able to recall what shade

Of blue your eyes are

All I’ll have are those silly

Love poems

That I wrote about you

I’m going to look back at them

And laugh and laugh and laugh
