Summer Fling Poem by Za7ra Sulaiman

met a guy in the summer and I left him in the spring
He argued with me about everything.

We met in the warmth of summer's embrace,
Two souls drawn together, faces aglow.
But beneath the surface, cracks began to trace,
As winter's chill crept in, our love left to grow cold.

He argued with me about everything,
His ego and temper, a relentless storm.
I tried to weather it, my heart still clinging,
But the more I gave, the more he would transform.

That wandering eye, a constant reminder
Of the trust I'd placed, now shattered and torn.
I wanted to hold on, be the light that would bind us,
But the fire had dimmed, our bond left forlorn.

And so in the spring, when the world came alive,
I knew it was time for me to depart.
The man I once loved, our dreams left to die -
A misunderstanding that broke my heart.

Now as the seasons change, I'm left alone to ponder
The love we once shared, now drifting asunder.
If only he'd seen past his flaws and his pride,
Perhaps our story wouldn't have ended in tears, a bittersweet divide.
