So broken... sad... Well done. Loads of emotion, to the point. Ann

There seems to be a hole in our collective soul, life is dismal. Meaningless and endless to so many, particularly our youth. You are welcome here Ann. Robert

Speaks volumes of the 'way we are' in just two pointed lines. Bravo, Robert!

Life surely can be all of those things. You said a lot in so few words. Enjoyed reading you. Take care and God bless.
