Sweet & sad. Explains well how one can still love & hurt the same person because it's "comfortable" that way. Very good!

Had to stop sobbing before I could write this. This poem is how I was with the Love of my Life, who died 22 years ago. This reminds me that I need to remember our joy, not the tragedy of losing him. Thank you, Elise!

Are you sure that you're not ME? Sounds like we share the same heart, & that's not always a fun place to be, for sure. I've lived this poem for most of my Life!

You share your heartbreak with us so explicity that memories of our own encounters flood our hearts & minds. We immediately commiserate with you, & make us want to hug you.

Forced me to breathe more slowly & deeply, as if I'd taken this inspiring trip with you. Totally entrancing!

Magical! Drew me in, wanting to explore this forest more deeply, & the last 2 lines felt like a cold spirit stroked the back of my neck. Lovely!

I can just feel how numb & resigned you were when you wrote this. Simply stated, yet communicating such deep agony. I can't agree with Wonder Woman's optimism, though others' cheer has always been beneficial to me. Sadly, Life just isn't always kind to us, & from those depths come our greatest lessons - & strangely, our best poems.
