Michael J. Falotico Poet Couplet

"a Late Lesson In Love"

Years in the past I never knew a heart can break...
Never understood another can just love and take...

Missed having some nice people in my life...
Kept up a shield to keep my heart out of sight...

Now older and much wiser those around see my heart...
Still a bit of a shame this man had such a late start...

All those in my life are covered with my love and friendship...
And never again will I hide and keep desire from leaving these lips...
