                                                                                          You
                                                                                        told me
                                                                                      by the sea
                                                                                    that afternoon
                                                                              this love was not to be.
                                                                    Thrusting your backstabbing harpoon-
                                                                you burst the bubble of my heart's balloon
                                                        and sold your love to a strange man you hardly knew.
                                                                That night I sat beneath a cold gray moon,
                                                                      thoughts of love that ended too soon,
                                                                              a key she leaves me free
                                                                                      love to attune,
                                                                                        love for me
                                                                                          shall be-
                                                                                            blue.

                                                                                                                                  spb.

Notes: The Diatelle form was created by Bradley Vrooman. The syllable structure of the diatelle is as follows: 1/2/3/4/6/8/10/12/10/8/6/4/3/2/1, but    unlike an ethere, has a set rhyme  pattern of abbcbccaccbcbba.  This poetry form may be written on any subject matter and looks  best center aligned in a diamond shape. This was a tough challenge. Thank you for reading.
