Not In Love (Acrostic)

Not in love?  He asked

Over and over again

There was a silence

 

Indignant towards her

Not In love? he asked again

 

Leaning towards her

Over the dinner table

Vacant look on her face

Evident that she meant every word.

A change in style from what I've read/heard by you so far Hazel, and I think it's very good.

I like acrostics anyway. I did one myself a couple of years ago and didn't even know it was an 'acrostic' until someone told me - didn't know there was term for it ha! I was just messing about with it!

Anyway, back to the poem. I like the stripped down style of it, it's direct but not dumbed down, works perfectly as an acrostic, and has a coldness to it which comes from falling out of love with someone. Nicely done!
