Too Little |

Too little, too late the passing nod he gives me as though I were never special at all. His words of nothing designed to placate have finally been realized as not enough. Not nearly. Did his intent twist into meaningless lies? Or was it me all along imagining love that never was? Either way, the point is moot it's far too little and I am done before it's too late.... |

Better to find out before you commit yourself too deeply than after. Sorry to see the sadness in this one but it also holds a light of hope that you are not wasting time on something or someone that doesn't deserve it. Either way, a wonderful write. If you find yourself stranded in a storm ...then reach for my hand and we will play in the puddles together |

Catalina, It is he, who it will be too late for. You have a new begnning to explore, and new dreams to capture. And I know you will... Beautiful writing. Love, Elise |

Very fine piece! I thought perhaps it was going to be cliché because of the common phrase. However, the way you've woven it, it's quite fine. Enjoyed the read. |

Oh, I am so sorry to hear about this pain! I am sorry to see that it all came too little too late. But you will find true love, I know you will, that will replace the pain, and it may just come too little too soon than you expected, which we'd just love to see too. Excellent poem, my friend, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

Great writing, Sandra! It's very liberating when you finally realize that you are worth more than settling for crumbs from the table......settle for nothing less than the feast!! Denise |
