Do nothing until you hear ...

Just sit on haunches in tears

For when they've called it off

You choke on tears and cough



But it's only temporary - for a stint

For life goes on ... here's a hint ...

There's always someone who ...

Resides around the corner - new



Someone who will make your day

A wonderful person who will stay

... With you - through thick and thin

And they're out there - not on a pin



So bear with it - you'll get over this

Look for the silver lining - not amiss

For every cloud has one, and behind

A shining sun - to brighten your mind



- Tristram
