The Next Sweetheart

I wouldn't know where to start
But I know how it ended
Another lonely, broken heart
Again has mended

Always by happenstance
That's how it goes
The other when I least expect it
He's as rare as a blue rose

congratulations - beautifully written - love comes when you least expect it, and always when you aren't looking... each heartbreak prepares us for the next big love.
