Wasted Love by Poppy
heartfelt, heartbreaking full of beautiful sadness stunning collection * Thanks for reading! Author's Notes: This is a missed-the-deadline-for-Matthew's challenge entry that I'm posting anyway. I still will do a review for BookClub, but felt this was a fitting way to show some love for Poppy's beautiful, if sad, book of wonderful poetry.
