The tone and voice in this are excellent. I like how it sticks to visual details then branches out into the broader truth. Great write. MD:77.

this is so beautiful! the beinning is just to honest and raw that it completely captivates me. and the rest of it is just so real and beautiful, you have great wording. my favorites were "the early morning lecture" and "he is all politeness too / honest smiles and an earnest laugh"

"i'm different and more aware of myself than i have ever been." that is true talent right there.

update soon! i crave your work

"he is beautiful.
oh yes."

What a way to start a poem! I like how direct you are for the beginning. It has a nice tone, and you get to the point well. :)

From lines five to ten, I love how something entirely sexual is taken from something completely innocent. It stresses the speaker's thoughts, opinions, feelings. It's a little humorous, too.

"he is all politeness too
honest smiles and an earnest laugh"

That's my favorite description of the poem. It's endearingly sweet. The phrasing I like too. It has a good 'beat'.
