An epitaph before its time...

We planned to live and love as we grew old,
Not to be separated by concrete grey and cold,

IT IS A VERY TOUCHING POEM, FRIEND I UNDERSTAND AND RELATE MYSELF TO THE MOOD AND EXPRESSION; AS I SAIL ON THE SAME BOAT.
TAKE CARE MY FRIEND YOU ARE NOT ALONE.

oh WOW zenith!! I'm so glad I traveled back to find this. It is SUCH a gem!
You have done this more than once. That is, taking so few words, lines
etc. and turned them into something enormous. It is a true gift my friend.

The feelings that secrete through this could soften the hardest heart.
A melancholy that wraps itself around your reader until all they can
do is breathe it in and let it soak them with the unpleasantness of
empty. I know of this. It tears at a soul, poet. DAMN! This is fabulous!!
The last line was so well interwoven with the whole piece. Brilliant work!!
