No Choice

Not withstanding that two hearts may break
Lovers must love for love's own sake.

Great message, Joyce. Congrats on the Hm. I chose a funny one for this contest and now I see why I lost. not one funny one among this group. Just lots of poignant ones. Geeez, do I read things wrong or what?

It is akin to a line from a sonnet by the Bard and I'm sure it will do well. Thank you as always for your kindness, My best to you. Gerard
