Because I Could Not Compete With Skyscrapers And Swing Dancers Comments

oh my God. ..superb.

And because i love this. Joe

Infact, the only good thing about this poem is the first stanza, though that has got nothing with the rest.

I loved every bit of it except the first stanza. I'm not sure it fits with the intensity and power that I found in the rest of the poem. Nevertheless, very well written.

.... what can I say when I read something like this.. I'm in awe.. well done' HBH

Amberlee, this is a spledid poem.

Your heart breaking like water was a striking image. Simple but full of impact.

I don't think this is a cliche, though it's certainly a subject many cliches have been written about. I can see you and feel you there. I don't think I've ever encounted the precise sentiments, or the phrases you use, ever before. I know the sense of time measuring (emotional) distance, that you begin the poem with.

Wonderful poem! You could not describe things any better. Bravo!

It's wonderful Amberlee, even so sad, indeed. I already read it on another place, but still like it a lot. (Metalcove)

A poem written with tears that somehow formed words.
