All the love we had

but not each other

Your best pals are happy to listen to your rambling, romantic sob stories once, maybe twice. But don't be tempted to go on and on... Channel your obsessive thoughts, weepiest self-pitying moments, and bouts of vengeful fury into the concise, elegant Japanese poetic form HAIKU.
Submit your haiku here, your comrades in frustration and devastation and misery and rage will read them... and you might even feel better.
