Short but Sweet

Thanks for breaking
my heart in two.
I needed that.
It's a learning process
I'm going thru.

How else could I possibly
learn that falling in love
is only for the chosen few.

To convey so much emotion in so few words is not easy. An excellent write, James, and a painful one.

James, you know that it's not for the chosen few. . . it just takes some of us longer to find it. . .

sad but powerful my friend. . .

Ouch

Very hard hitting...I kinda understand...the feeling anyway, though I don't believe that's a universal truth...

It may seem that falling in love is only for the chosen few. But it is for anyone with the right person and the right circumstances.

Right time, right place, right person...so much to think about, so little time. I liked your poem it was short but not as sweet as I expected.
Well done!

I liked this. It was raw and real. A good sign of a worthy poet.
