This brings tears to my eyes as I have some friends who go through the same thing. Your words are like caresses for your friend's soul. This is wonderful.

there's just nothing to say, it speaks for itself...!

It's as if it's a rushed plea; the brackets add to this. It's good, and heartfelt.

This would be the perfect thing for my friend's girlfriend Clarelle to read. She's bulimic, and won't listen to anything I've told her. ;-;At any rate, beautiful language, and it's very true to life.

I know it makes no sense but I got a beautiful 1800's english tone out of it. I loved it!

love it, great use of brackets and italics and i like how you dealt with this issue with such passion and beauty x weasel within x

sweet but perhaps oversimplified...still nicely done. : )

Great job!

Fantastic. I love the style in this, especially the ending. Blech, self-image. May the (wo)man who created mirrors rot in hell (or something like it).

Haunting. Detached. Beautiful, and full of distant longing. Longing to help, to heal, but also the lingering feeling of, "I am helpless." Great job. The flow of this poem is different from any other, and yet it fits perfectly. Amazing.

So sad and touching, at the same time the speaker's care and love for the person shines through so beautifully, especially in the apostrophe "beautiful" that keeps recurring throughout the poem. Wonderful job, almost made me cry.

Wow. Dark and eerie, as innocent as the message may appear to be. I like this a lot!

Wow, strong imagery... and sadness. i love.

all i can say is, i relate...

so sad and true.. beautiful poem
