Sometimes love’s just gone
Sometimes we have to move on
Let’s be friends, Dear John

Like this poem...reminded me of the time I spent in the service in Germany and I watched friend after friend receive a Dear John letter from his sweetheart...not knowing the intensity of their relationship it was hard for me to relate...could only observe their response...some seemed to handle it quite well and some went banana's...James

I knew a guy who had only thirty days to go on his combat tour in Viet Nam get a "Dear John" from his wife.He just gave up and was dead in about two days.How could the women who had to hear the stories about the effect on guys send those letters?

Dear John, friends we'll be
Such sentiment is priceless
You have touched my heart

Hugs,

Thanks all. Wouldn’t it be nice if everyone could be civil about ending a relationship?

Tracey, Thanks for reading.

Marge, I’ll split it with you.

SEA, You’re right, but can’t we just move on?

Sunshine, Thanks. I’ll be here 2/14/02.

James, I know what you mean. Not knowing the circumstances, some people would go nuts.

paladin, That is sad.

Kitty, There you go- the woman’s perspective. Good one.

vicky, Thanks for your verse.

Melton

this really makes me feel that words sound hollow at times and perhaps one should just be straight and direct to the point...

nice senryu
