The title got me to thinking about the Frank Sinatra song, “It Was a Very Good Year.” But then as I read your poem, I felt a sense of regret. My college relationships were all failures so I can relate.
So many of us have starred in that story. I would like to give you such a hug because I feel the pain in those words, even as I sense a certain numbness or resignation. I applaud your ability to see his leaving as a positive. The rather dry way you tell your story, accentuates the emotional trauma, I believe, which is a very effective style. Cudos. Be well, Kathy
What as beautiful young lady you were
I had to mention this first :)
And it is a pity that he lost someone
so precious and loving but I must echo
the others, it's good he did you that

South Baltimore serves as the backdrop for this gripping story of three brothers leading very different lives but joined forever by the secrets of a painful family past.
Married ten years, and more in love than ever, Robert and Marcie have everything to live for. But a terrible secret is breaking Robert's heart: he knows that Marcie is about to die...
a release I pray..
