After her cheating boyfriend broke her heart,
she gave up on love and men at age 21.
She didn’t have a man in her life for seven lonely years
until she met a decent and true man at age 28.
The romance lasted two beautiful years until
her ideal love died in a car crash.
She had three more loves and two marriages
before she died at 74.
None of those loves or marriages worked out.
It wasn’t that she was unlovable or hard to be with.
She was a kind, sweet, and decent woman and fun to be with.
It was the bad luck of the random draw, never finding
the right one, never finding lasting love.

Started writing poetry a little over a year ago; most poems I write are fictional but some are not. Spiritual with a permanent spiritual experience. Write poems on many subjects. Always researching for many of my poems and because of my unquenchable thirst for knowledge. After reading and hearing about many near death experiences and death bed visions, I believe death is the ultimate awakening and the relocation of a lifetime. You may believe differently, but you have the right to be wrong -- I'm just messing with you. :-)
