Carolyn Devonshire Poet Free verse

Itty Bitty, Achy-Breaky Heart

time spent together
great love for me
itty bitty to him
he now dates only married women

my heart sealed in a jar
best friend asked if this was a drain
no drain, my dear
it’s a sewer

Richard Lamoureux April 16, 2014 at 7:18 PM Sorry to hear this is a true story. Some men are a waste of space. I'm glad you are stronger than him.

Tim Smith April 15, 2014 at 4:37 PM HE definitely smells like the sewer. You deserve much better...hugs Tim Carolyn Devonshire April 16, 2014 at 3:11 PM Indeed he was (and probably still is) a stinker. I'm over it. Haven't desired to be "in love" since though. There is a higher love that beckons.
