Lesson of the Heart

It was drawn on the chalkboard,
but I never paid attention.
It was scribbled in the margins,
but I never read them.
But finally, I got glasses
I looked up, sat in the front
and learned.

The equation is simple.
Person comes into life
Person serves purpose
Person leaves.

It's like the cycle of life.
You learn something from everyone
and then once you've learned,
once you've accepted the lesson,
they leave and it's done
and question number two
appears on the paper.
