abusewonderful. I especially like this: "Your hand in my own, helping/Me after the fall—a part of me/Still loves you, a part of me still /Yearns for you". I can definitely relate. I love the feeling this poem paints; longing, slightly, but kind of regretful. I dunno.

excellent job, though.

abusethe title of this is just breathtaking. I don't even know why, but it's so pitch-perfect and draws you in right away.

well, being a wistful teenaged kid I guess I relate to this pretty strongly, but I think you absolutely captured the feeling. I like the bittersweet, nostalgic feel to it all.

first word of the third line should be 'Your' not 'You're', a little typo I guess. and just two recommendations- the use of 'doll' at the end of the first line just sorta throws me, it seems a little gaudy and vaudeville-ish compared to the conversational tone of the rest of the poem. and also, capitalizing every first line [even when it was still the same sentence] seemed to break the flow.

beautiful poem, as usual, you are such an amazing writer :]

abuseThe flow is excellent, quite rhythmic.

I like the concept of one's smile glowing in the dark.
However -- 'You're smile' & 'You're hand' -- this person is a smile and a hand? I can't tell if this is an error or something more complex that I don't understand.

Overall I like it, but seems like it almost needs just a little more, just something more original to finish it and give it more impact.
