This is a poem, to break your heart.
I hope you're prepared.
Two lovers, who could not be
Wanted to live together
Make memories, create a family.
Unfortunately for them,
There was no way
As the world did not give
Them the time of day
Their families were moving away
Making them cut contact and
Never get to say
Plenty of the things they wanted to
And what they felt those very days
They overestimated their time
And had no time left
They’d have to now mourn
And never be
They’d never have their family
This was a poem to break your heart…
Open. To never close it again
Reminisce in the good times
Take advantage of the time you have
As you never know when it will end.
Open your heart, until the very end.
