Six word short story

Apparently Hemingway wrote the shortest story ever written. It was only six words:

"For sale: baby shoes, never worn."
- Hemingway

He said it was his best work. XD I absolutely love it and think it's amazing.
I found a website where some other authors were asked to try it, and these are some of my favourites:

Longed for him. Got him. ****.
- Margaret Atwood

Corpse parts missing. Doctor buys yacht.
- Margaret Atwood

Starlet sex scandal. Giant squid involved.
- Margaret Atwood

Gown removed carelessly. Head, less so.
- Joss Whedon

TIME MACHINE REACHES FUTURE!!! … nobody there …
- Harry Harrison

I thought it'd be really fun to try write our own. :biggrin:

:biggrin:

Only six words. Any ideas?

I used to care; pulls trigger.

I caught clouds; you made rain.

Child sits alone, from broken home.

If hearts spoke, they'd sound foreign.
