Just Like That

A sticky side of tape always gets stuck. A white piece of paper always gets written on. A young heart always gets broken. And just like that, you are gone.

Yes, life can change in a minute! So well expressed. Hope this is not a reflection of reality for you. Affairs of the heart are always so tender and complicated. Warmest wishes. Love, Shar

Caroline...I never get too much of an effect from shorter poems like these...but this is so poigniant and sad! Embracing the inevitable is wise...and leaves me nodding with sympathy... Much love , Steve
