Acrostic Poem: Are you Serious?

Belinda Richmond 1979 (Chicago)



A - Always the one to want to Play games
R - Realizing that you are just not the same
E - Even though we have grown far apart


Y - You were the one that left from the start
O - Only problem is that you have changed
U - Undeniably you have become estranged


S - Since you have decided to go astray
E - Elated to see you go far away
R - Relieved that you are No longer around
I - Influenced from others that you were a clown
O - Over the top and completely deranged
U - Under some control and very unhinged
S - So very Happy that we have come to an End
