Simple Word

A simple word – Softly spoken, Stilled my heart Left me broken A single breath – Such destruction, Instant death One deduction Goodbye.

Special moments like this one, usually are meant to be for a reason. There's usually a lesson to learned. Thanks for sharing this meaningful poem, Danny. This is my first visit, but I'll be back; I'm following your poetry now. A poet in Texas, Bill
