Boyfriend Broke Up With Me Tanka

My boyfriend dumped me yesterday
Leaving me just a little less gay
I'm too broke for drugs
But I could use some hugs
And dumb memes to numb my dismay.

The writing I saw on the wall
As I haven't been giving my all
This was no surprise
but still generates sighs
mall paul, fall, ball, tall... ...pau gasol... okay i'm bored I need to go shower

"Super, that's a very poorly constructed limerick, not a tanka."

"Just give me this one, Twilight. Just for once can you not be a pedant?"

"Yeah, fair enough. Come on, let's go get you a milkshake. On me."

"How did you know that's my favorite unhealthy desert?"

I've been intermittently trapped in this story for six years. I know you far better than I ever wanted to."

"Oof, valid. Wow I've really been writing this for six years? Time certainly flies. Well, want me to get you a milkshake too?"

"No, it might bring all the boys to the yard."

I smiled. "Wow, Twilight, a humorous pop culture reference from you? Will wonders ever cease?"

"Hey, I can be funny!"

"Sure thing, egghead. Come on, that Caramel Malt isn't going to eat itself."
