    Wow, this was amazing. I don't read poems very often but I'm glad I read yours. It was so descriptive and emotional I could step into the character's shoes. Awesome job on this and please write more poems! Cute

    I have to say, wow. That was really good. It flowed so nicely together, it's like I could see it playing in my head you know? It was such a light read, and the ending, in italics, killed me. That's a good thing haha. It was just a great ending for the poem I think, you really did a good job. I'll be subscribing for more poems. Job well done C:

    @ aubree james.
    Thank you so much, even more so for the layout suggestion - I'll go and fix that up.

    That was beyond beautiful. At the end of the poem I sort of felt that I was being dropped as the character was. It's haunting.

    What I appreciate about this poem is the proper use of parallel structure. I love how each stanza reflects upon the last and builds onto it only in a way that compliments it. Also, the allusion to her becoming 'blindingly light' while she falls from heavens clouds is remarkable. It is a definitely a well thought out play of words and ideas.

    The only thing I'd change is the layout. While I understand that a recurring theme in this poem is light colours 'pale blending to white'. The white on white is a bit difficult to read.

    First off, the layout is gorgeous and it fits perfectly.
    Second, I love your imagery.
    Every verse is clear and bittersweet and I love it.
    Also, the repetition in the first and last verses was some of the seriously best I've ever read. Altogether it's soft and broken while slightly disconnected with reality━a beautiful short story. I like poems. And your media. Therefore I like this, a lot. Keep writing. ~

    Woah. I really like the amount of emotion this invokes, even just in a few simple words. I can relate to it, and it portray's a very vivid image.

    My favourite part however, has to be the end.

    the only type of magic act
    i'm good at is
    leaving you

    all because you let go of me.


    To me, it seems solid, and rings true. I really like it :D

    I'm not good at poetry, sorry if this sucks Facepalm

    I can really feel the emotion here. It's strong and meaningful. I don't really have any negative feedback other than it's a little choppy, but that's a complaint I have about almost all poetry. This was really good.
