Once Ago
Love life
and
Long live
to
Once done
so
Long ago
Wishes upon stars
almost
Never come true
as
Life without love
comes
Much too often
Once ago was a loving life
Once ago was long ago
Once ago was laughter
Once ago is gone
We have men and boys
We have women and girls
We had love
We had us
Life is a dance
Danger is the tune
To love and to hold
Does it come true
Once ago was a living life
Once ago was long ago
Once ago was wishes
Once ago is gone
Some days we want to be happy
Some days we fight
Some days we enjoy a laugh
Some days we cry
What we wish is not what we need
What we need is never known
What we want is something found
What we find is nothing there
Once ago was so long
Once ago was life
Once ago was happiness
Once ago is done

I chose that particular image because it shows a broken butterfly, representing broken relationships. There's a light and dark side with untold details and misunderstandings in every curve, every argument.
What I hope people see in this piece is the hidden message between the lines, yet in plain sight as well. I won't tell you what it is.
You have to search within the words and yourself to know its true meaning to YOU.
