The whole thing is great, but I really like this verse:

 

So we are destined to remember

these petals that will never form a flower.

Love that cannot answer.

Although it feels that awful longing

to declare that it lives.

Well I guess one improves with age, I look back and wonder. I guess that guy just wanted to lay one on you. Old rabbit.

Re: Wonderful work, C C T!

Thank you Kat. I suppose we would not be worth much if we belittled each little flurry of love.

Re: Krisles

Perhaps Krisles it is sad, but one can live with that emotion in time.

The similiarities we find to others can be astounding...It can be tough to let go of a dream.

This is so very, very good.  That said, the last verse is so very, very sad....well, I found it so.

Young, we miss love as it touches us Bro, great poetry.

Sometimes the memories come back unbidden.

I did have a love or two as a girl...Nothing of passion, good girls didn't do that.

perhaps is why this one left and I felt the world ended.

He came back...so many years later...I was not interested and he smelled sour...he said I missed my chance then? I just shrugged my shoulders.
