Not much worse can happen to (some) women, I imagine. It seems this way from my (limited) experience, anyway. (Only been married twice so far; lol). ~ gw

Same here, Gershon, but the last one was so successful and so wonderful I won't be doing so again. I always enjoy your remarks.

Sad but good poem. I like that "she" and "lonely are isolated words; and later on "now"; indicating her isolation, and the now seems to last forever. Thank you.

"Abandoned by love" Such a lonely feeling indeed. Your thoughts caress gently around me and my heart. This is tender and emotional, all at the same time. ~ Brandy
