We Were Strangers? (Double Etheree)

[grannyjill]

Hey, that's a good line....I'm torn now between your suggestion and Leanne's. With Leanne I get the 'train/life' journey angle, and with your idea I get a greater sense of tragedy, since it says 'cut short with still far to go'.....I think, though that (the way I pronounce it) I've gained an extra syllable.

So, as the other words must stay...the only one I can change is 'ended'

Suicide. His life prematurely stilled/closed/done?

Take your pick
