Wonderful poem! You are such a good poet!!

nicely described and I love that italics.. I cant realte though 'cause I dont drink & this is one of the reasons why.. lol

haha. I love the "as if" at the bottom. Lovely. Also, you used the word cellophane, which automatically gives you my approval.

Oh yeah the opening, classy. Very. And the whole smuggling yourself away atmosphere I get from this is something I can feel. (beautiful) peace

the last two line was brilliantly witty, at least in my opinion~ great poem

keep writing!

Very well done, i love the honesty in these words and the way you describe everything, i can totally relate as i've been in this positon many a time, without the aches tho, lol, well done you really got inside this and turned it into a magnificent piece!

I loved how you opened this with those first few verses, about how your face didn't fit and the smuged makeup - like going to sleep one person and waking up to be another (one is the real person but who really knows which one that is most of the time anyway?) Really a strong piece, I loved it. Keep up the good work.

Much love,Juliet.

haha last line reminds me of my teenage bopper years. haha anyway, beautiful imagery. love the first stanza. nice work!
