Slow Learner
Funny how fast a heart can be broken
torn apart by love's low blows
to be carried on the whim
to Know-Man's Land
lost in a cluster of unintentional throes.
Funny how fast a heart can be broken
given to a friend, too easy to know
reaching ever for that kindred spirit
dying slowly, sad and alone.
Funny how fast a heart can be broken
when love flows easily one way
given to loving
slowly, saddly learning
learning to love another day.
