Poetry Friday: The Awful Truth by Beau Taplin

One day, whether
you are 14, 28 or 65

you will stumble upon
someone who will start a fire
in you that cannot die.

However, the saddest,
most awful truth
you will ever come to find,

is they are not always
with whom we spend our lives.

- The Awful Truth by Beau Taplin
