This review, obviously, is just my opinion. If my suggestions help, I am glad. If not, please don't take it personal, because it wasn't meant to be.




We put so much into the feelings we have for others. We tend to go so far as investing our own identity into them. Then when that diamond stops shining, we are lost, feeling like that glimmering fool.

While the poem wasn't completely clear to me. At some points it seems like mutual feelings, then at times it seems just the opposite. You write of arrogance and feeling like a, glimmering fool. The emotions are a little hard to pin down.

Maybe that is the point that it was mutual, but then it died. People change, and that is what makes relationships difficult, for love can be fleeting when one isn't sure what they are looking for. It's sad, even unfair, but it is a part of the process.

Break down those prison doors, set fire to the prison, walk away and smile. It's best to leave that jailor far behind.

Oh, I like the title. The symbolism there: a relationship, like a diamond, beautiful, tough, meant to last -- there is irony there.
