That’s It

The Other, #109

She was here she was near she was the one I had for a while Then came the winter she slipped away became distant, silent out of sight

What happened exactly and precisely I will never know for certain No one can know everything Everyone knows a little and that’s it

Life is multiple and diverse life can be very good and sometimes the opposite And so it is life goes on always on so here too
