The Journey of Two [E] the truth about love |
Greetings and welcome to writing.com! This is a powerful poem full of wisdom and sadness as it mourns a lost relationship. You have approached the timeworn subject with originality and keen observation, dreaming about how things could have been and indeed were for a brief time. The moment at the end is ingenious enough for songwriting… indeed, if you’ll excuse my love of music, this reminds me of a Taylor Swift song. Perhaps that is intentional; I see one of your genres is Teen. It was also creative of you to select Melodrama as one genre; I remember puzzling over the definition of the term and wondering what the difference is between that and just plain "drama..." I like the bold font you've chosen here; it stands out on the page and holds its own against our busy WdC sidebars. The meter is free-flowing and conversational, leading us along through your contemplations without being fussy. I had to go back and check for rhymes; your final one is subtle, and the rest is in free verse. I can't think of anything to suggest here. This is good enough to submit to several contests... I can think of at least three which accept previously written content. There's "Fox's Socks Newbie Poetry Contest" , which is currently closed but I would highly recommend you "fan" it by clicking the black heart underneath the item name (not the one alongside the username of the contest owner, although that would be a good idea too...) Then there's "Shadows and Light Poetry Contest" as well as "First and Second Chance Poetry Contest" , which are currently open and accepting entries. Take care, thanks for sharing and keep writing I hope you have lots of fun on WdC My review has been submitted for consideration in "Good Deeds Get CASH!" .
