“Let’s leap <br />off Lover’s Leap <br /> <br />& be together for <br />...ever! ” <br /> <br />She declared <br />passionately <br /> <br />And to be near her <br />I(without hesitation) leapt. <br /> <br />Love on the rocks <br />(not a pretty sight) <br />my mangled mortal remains. <br /> <br />She leapt too <br />but she cheated <br />(bungee jumped) <br /> <br />& bounced back <br />into the arms of her new lover. <br /> <br />I can still hear her <br />laughter. <br /> <br />I like a ghost <br />haunted our past <br /> <br />unable to recover. <br /> <br />Summer turning <br />into winter.<br /><br />Dónall Dempsey<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/more-fool-i/
