Life Is About

"Life is about love, last minutes, and lost evenings" - Frank Turner life is about awkward before parting pauses we didn't know would be … our last goodbyes memories that laugh and cry faces that fade in yesterday's apprehensive mists and forgotten or ignored "we'll get togethers" life is about a "head-in-hands cry" - a breathless sigh a wondering why I ended this day without a purpose fulfilled - without having lost at least one " I tried"
