Hanging


Sometimes the
  woulda
            coulda
                        shouldas
the
     what ifs
            and the maybes

are left to dangle

as sentence awaits
one final punctuation.

  7. Life is so full of those woulda coulda shouldas and whatifs - and sometimes they are so hard to let go of it's almost unreal. But we need to leave them behind - period.
