LOVE LOST AND SEARCHED FOR

Love Lost And Searched For 

High school sweethearts 
meet at tenth reunion 
then never again 

One is gone 
the other curious 
reaching out 
to the offspring 

Should the child tell the truth 
tell the tale 
of the other heart 
that wasn’t so sweet 

Lie to save the half century old memories 
of a sentimental senior citizen 
or tell the truthful tale 
thereby the grace of dumb luck 
your high school love did not take you
