Kelly Deschler Poet Limerick

Broken Hearted - Jtap

Our friendship here had only just started
then you left me alone, broken hearted
you're gone but not forgotten
now life it seems so rotten
ever since the sad day you departed.



We miss you, Chan :)



This was my sadder take on the "poet who broke my heart" contest theme.

Andrea Dietrich February 10, 2015 at 6:12 PM You chose probably the best possible topic to write on, the passing of Chan. You and he were so close, I can imagine. It's hard to believe he died and sad beyond words. Loved your poem, Kelly. Kelly Deschler February 15, 2015 at 11:34 PM It is still hard for me to believe that Chan passed away, because he had such a lively personality. He became my big brother on Poetry Soup, and his heart and soul can never die... Thank you so much for your kind words here. I'm so glad you liked my poem :)
