recalling a  close shave from my youth

 
 
you came unexpectedly  
                               one day and  
winter arrived early  
 
 
you left suddenly years  
                              years ago  
and I waited for  
                              the return of
spring

broken hearts?
   whining and moaning?
  
what was all that
shit about?
 
if that would have happened  
                             today, I would
have said, don't let the damn  
                             door hit you on  
the ass on the way out!

my-o-my

how the times do
change
