Notes About The Poem

Sympathies

Forget about it
Don’t think about it
It’s not important 
Put it out of your mind

Things I have been told

Advice for the lovelorn
The bereaved
The broken hearted
The lonely

Your love has gone away forever
They have left you behind
They have stopped you in your tracks 

Well meaning friends
Want you to forget them
Get on with your life

But the hole in your heart
Is too big to fill

With sympathies
