Cocoa

As he went, I hope he knew, how much I will really grieve him so. 

As he left, in my warm arms, the room went cold, it made no sense. 

Just here then, and now so gone. I wept our tears, as you go.

This is a Korean poetic form called sijo. I wrote this sijo about me loosing my best friend my guinea pig named cocoa when he was battling an upper raspatory infection since he was a baby.  The first thing that cane to mind when creating my sijo is loss of my best friend and how it really impacted my life.
