Read 'A Very Short Song' by 'Dorothy Parker' and provide your summary and literary analysis in the comments section below.
Once, when I was young and true,
Someone left me sad-
Broke my brittle heart in two;
And that is very bad.
Love is for unlucky folk,
Love is but a curse.
Once there was a heart I broke;
And that, I think, is worse.
