a sad ending. i loved all of these pieces

i like this

love love love this

this poem had a bitter sweet feel to it!

beautiful.

The last two lines sum up this piece perfectly.

"And I know I'm 19 months behind your smile" love this line.

this piece is short and simple but holds so much emotion in so little words.

this is so cute and such lovely descriptions in this :)

this is a lovely metaphor. wonderfully written.

Nice rhyme. It creates an interesting tone and makes this feel like it's wrapped up nicely.

The ideas, too, sound very conclusive. The narrator is stating them as fact and not speculation. I like the feeling that gave me as I was reading.

Nice ending for this collection. Bitter and depressing, but strong.

I like the analogy to a cartoon. It's childish and serious at the same time.

I also like your concept in the second stanza, that the reality check is more painful than the failed romance. True and relatable.

I like how you tied your penname in here. I always thought it was a creative one, so I like that you put it to use in a piece.

I like the first two lines. The way you phrase it is interesting, and it's eye-catching the way it's separated. The ending wasn't as strong, though. It didn't particularly go anywhere, though, at least not as far as I was expceting.

Sorry, I know absolutely no French ;

I love how you reverse this-how it's in both languages, but the "I love you/je t'aime" is different in both. Very creative.

[refusing to be written/in a language you’d understand.] Interesting play on language differences.

I really liked this piece. Cute, but with a serious meaning.

I like the sort of stop-and-go feel of the first stanza. It really makes it feel "awkward."

Speaking of that line, I think it should be "awkwardly." Either that, or put a comma before it to make it apply to the "we" instead of the "standing."

Nice concept to the piece. It's vry meaningful and realatable.

[And I know I'm 19 months behind your smile] Creative way to put it.

Nice flow and wording to this; it's well-written. I don't particularly like the topic, though. It's pretty cliched, and you didn't bring much new to it.

I love the ending. The contrast in both the tone and the hot vs. cold really brings out hte emotion.

I didn't particularly like the first line. It was a bit wordy, and the tone was too conversational to really draw me into the poem.
