This was written at Creative Writing Society – the task was to write a poem using 100 words of 1 syllable based on a memory. The title is taken from a Billy Bragg song.
Where did you go?
Why did you go?
Come Back
Please
Sand, sea, sun
Gone for good
Where are you?
Why is this?
Come back
Please
Run. Stop. Think
Here. No.
There. No
Back. No
Gone. Yes.
Come back,
Please.
Gone, left, passed.
Sorry, so sorry
You, me, us
Come back
Please
No You
No Us
No More
No, just no
Come Back
Please
Hide, Yes? Not gone.
You’re here, not gone.
You came back
Yes?
Oh, just a dream
Not back, still gone
All in my head, not true
I was wrong.
You’re gone, gone for good
I thought you weren’t but you are
Gone for good
Come back
Please
