i loved her,
she talked and talked and talked,
i didn't love her,
she walked and walked and walked,,
i miss her,
her talk, her walk, her socks.

I really enjoyed this. It showed that a quickie can say so much. I wasn't sure about the last word. Will have to think about it.

This was a fun poem! Pop some capitals into the I's and remove that double comma typo in line four, but otherwise it is good - personally I enjoyed the ending with missing her socks simply due to the randomness of it!

Oh! very, very nice little ditty.
To miss someone's socks, that is true missing.
I think that last line could say her talks, her walks and her socks.
My preference.

Nice,

I miss her socks, even though I still have one. Bloody human emotion, hey, what a shiter. Sometimes i wonder why anyone does anything at all.

Socks are very personal and quite asexual. works for me.
