limerick challenge: pain. a poem by sandra. manchester uk.

Limerick Poetry Challenge at Mind and Life Matters – This week’s prompt: pain

She once knew a man from Manchester
Who would let his emotions fester.
He penned words of pain
When she felt the same.
In his melancholy verse, she took shelter.

Bonus points if you can figure out
Who this limerick is about…

About what sandra thinks

Sandra is a writer, sometimes blogger, poet, artist, emotional disaster. She thinks far too much and sleeps far too little. Sandra lives in the Northeastern U.S. but dreams of an oceanfront home in Italy, but she would settle for a non-oceanfront home in Italy. She loves books, brutal honesty, coffee, and the color black. She hates insincerity, beer, whipped cream, and facebook. And she is uncomfortable talking about herself in the third person.
