Piecemeal

Two lives once pieced together
one day may come apart.
Who knows if time will loosen
that fine mosaic of heart
that happened after melding
two souls into one?
Even mighty continents
slowly come undone.

About lifelessons

My blog, which started out to be about overcoming grief, quickly grew into a blog about celebrating life. I post daily: poems, photographs, essays or stories. I've lived in countries all around the globe but have finally come to rest in Mexico, where I've lived since 2001. My books may be found on Amazon in Kindle and print format, my art in local Ajijic galleries. Hope to see you at my blog.

    brrrr.. .a poem that is tough to read on Valentine’s Day. We like to think of love as eternally strong but the last 2 lines give a reality check. Ann

    i like it when things are sometimes viewed scientifically. Sentimentality often seems false.
