You have a very strikingly powerful way of writing. Every single one of the poems I've read is filled with an emotion that is expressed extremely well in your words. Great choices of emotional subjects that most people can relate to in one way or another.
I love the "California held his dreams in the palm of its hand/like rotted apple blossoms" lines. Nicely done.

wow.. another good peice. at first i didnt understand it but now i read it a second time. i must i admit i felt stupid for not understanding it the first time. obviously your love whas moved away. long distance relationships are always hard. trust me i know... i had three of them. the best thing you can do is stop tormenting yourself and let go. okay lol sorry i went in therapist mode... thats what i think im going to go into college to become. a pyschologist...soon as i learn how to spell it. lol great job with this poem

"I’m a beast
and I can detect her voice in yours
and smell her kisses from the words you say to me."
So hard on herself, before the betrayer.
"I never claimed to understand all of this" - one of my favorit lines. This may be a wrong way to interpret, but the line, no, the poem itself, seemed to remind that distance doesn't always make the heart grow stronger, especialy since the emotional distance has grown longer than than the physical, and has been literred with many more obstacles, like his California blond.

Beautiful. Filled with emptiness and sorrow, written very powerfully and the images are great. This is definitely a favorite simply because of how creatively you have shaped your feelings. Well done! Please keep writing.
