This is why I love 10w. Sometimes it's all you need to paint a vivid picture. Well done. :)

Hey, Jack. I admire short poems like this. How can I add my work in that collection?

Only 10 words, but has many fringes of "could be's,"   A lot of  possibilities following........

Aah... What a familiar tune of a known lyrics. In only ten words you have resurrected "things long forgotten" to do. 
I love 10w for the reason that it brings out the fire in a poet's pen. And you have proved your pen, Jack.

Or perhaps forget to remember... Very nice!

I love when I come across someone who put a 10w poem out there for me to find...I love reading each one I stumble upon them because every single one of them (including this one) is appreciated by dozens of readers, as they all interpret these few words just a tiny bit differently. Poems like this one evoke numerous thoughts, memories, and even emotions perhaps in the brief time it takes for people to read them. These few words speak limitlessly to its readers, and each reader can personally enjoy it for their own reasons. I love the words you've so cleverly written, as well as the various ways it touches people.

Well done on daily again my friend.  Sorry I just saw this!

Another old one from you.  I hope your heart has healed from the pain of this relationship. Good ten words.

Exactly what I am feeling right now! If only. . .

Am I allowed to set this to music (as in may a make a choral song with these wonderful words being the ones being sung)?

If only...

So beautiful, and very sad.
