Love & Friendship by adeabdul2(m): 10:24pm On Jan 22, 2020
I broke your heart, t'was not my intention.
I wanted a friend, but you gave affection.
When clarity came, it confused us both.
Our real intent, we'd misunderstood
Our feelings weren't tagged, we mutually assumed.
What we each wanted, we each thought we knew.
We were together, with hearts not in order.
But what we both wanted, we both could not give.
Love brings friendship, though they're not the same.
I wanted companionship, romance was your game.
We'd hurt ourselves unintentionally, but we hurt all the same.
Should've spoken calmly, instead of trading blames.
Mean words were spoken, bad names were called.
That bridge is now broken, can't go back nor forward.
Our relationship got stranded, it wilted and died
Now what's left but sadness, to remember and cry.

Alright. A stanza is a group of lines in poem that are separated physically using spaces between the different stanzas.

We have couplet which consist of two consecutive lines of poem. Tercet has three lines, Quatrain has four lines, quintain has five lines....and many more.

You can check my thread "Rudiment of poetry" to learn more.
