Too Far (acrostic/sedoka)

Today I'm alone
Only solitude to love
Over you for nevermore

Forever you're gone
A memoir of past love lost
Running free; I have moved on

Author notes

If something wasn't clear, drop me a line and I'll get the Windex lol But seriously, just ask for clarification. Oh... and I just noticed something... in the second katauta, do the first and last lines qualify as 'rhyme'? If they do it was a mistake...I can fix it if nessecary....

It's not too bad... right?

    No not bad at all, but it seems like an extension of the first thought not a different perspective.

    I honestly can't say that this is the best sedoka I have read, but it certainly wasn't the worst, and I mean that to be a compliment, not an insult, because you did good for your first time with that form.

    Your last line has caught my attention. Your poem is about an old love, and that you're lonely now, but then you end with:
    "Run free with me; I've moved on."
    If you have moved on, why the "run free with me" part? I'd either say one of these two instead:
    "Run free like me..." or "Running free; I have moved on"

    It's fine the way it is. It's not really to rhyme, but it's better than it all being rhyme and missing the whole purpose.
