A two-by-four
EPIGRAPH:

Of all sad words of tongue and pen, the saddest are these, ‘It might have been.’
–John Greenleaf Whittier (1807 – 1892)
Death might
have been
what he
really wanted.

Again another well crafted poem with a paucity of words to express a large idea!

“It might have been’ are truly the saddest words. Thank you for sharing this quote.
My pleasure, Molly 💕
it might have been… hmm. regret is a bugger.
the worst
So this is the secret in the deepest which no one can see. Regrets.. As terveen also pointed out we must not dwell upon such thoughts either. But since you exposed it.. nicely written! David!
Yes, DD… There’s a fine line between dwelling upon such thoughts and acknowledging them.
Terveen is wise 😊
💓
David
yes there is.
I think many of us keep such thoughts close to our hearts. It’s not easy to always move forward with positivity. But not dwelling upon it is what helps us survive. Well written, David. 🙂
❤ thanks, Terveen ❤
