A Review from "SIMPLY POSITIVE GROUPOpen in new Window.


Hi Cinn Author Icon! A very *Balloonr* Happy WDC Anniversary *Balloony* from House Martell at "Game of ThronesOpen in new Window.!

It's nice to see how someone made a collection of poetry over the years and I went directly in the 2014 folder because I wanted to read the oldest poems in your portfolio which were in this folder. The cover photo and the short description of your poem caught my attention as I agreed about how we all need to move on from something. I wanted to know if you have referred your poem to a specific thing or written in general.

Your poem made me remember Norb's poem where there was a similar idea but of course, expressed in a completely different way. I liked his and yours too. There's no need to waste time to change yourself for someone who doesn't care any more or who won't change themselves for you and expect everything from you. While this poem may be taken in the relationship way, I took it in the general, daily life stuff like failure over something or depression, grieving about our beloved's death. A person who fails shouldn't hang to the failure instead learn from it and move on, leaving it all in the past. Everyone will die one day and therefore when someone close to us has died then instead of sticking on to the past, their dead bodies, we should keep them in our hearts and be happy for this is what they would wish for us.

The starting stanza was brilliant as you give the reader two scenes, one is taken in the literal sense as in staring someone, while the other is hanging on to something tightly. Although you have written about how there's some sort of an eye staring contest, all the while there is something deeper going on in the poem and the reader enjoys it, being able to read something while being conveyed emotions, ideas differently. This was the favourite aspect of your poem for me.

*Shield1* Thank you for sharing your work with us! *Shield2*
