Must All Men Die Poem by John F. McCullagh

Must All Men Die

Rating: 5.0


Hearts, it seems, are as fragile as dreams-
and quite as easily broken.
Frail as a paper valentine
Which is but true love's token.
The widow maker kills the king
Before needed words are spoken.
The card is turned and it is Death.
Hearts are too easily broken.
