Candy Hearts Can Kill Comments

I like chocolate candy keeps me awake

ciao, mary! this is bitter/sweet! very well done. how true! aaa

Belongs in a valentine card at a doctor's office. Great job.

Very clever and—at times—painfully true. This made me smile, because even though it took a painful twist on Valentines, I remember getting those silly candy's and digging through the box and trading them for the ones I wanted.

Hi Mary Great idea for a poem...a concrete sweet metaphor...the candy gram. I'm inspired to write one now.

Hi Mary! What a nice unique poem for Valentine's Day! Love It! ! *10*! ! Hugs Friend Thad

One Valentine's Day my girl and I each pulled a candy heart out of a large bowl of them and each got 'Soul Mate'...most of my dark and suicidal poems are written about her...love the irony, humor and your poem.

Excellent Mary....... and topical! Rogerx.

Oh how they kill with kindness

Hi Mary. This is beautiful but so sad and so true. Perhaps we should teach the basics of loving oneself in school long before the thought of being loved by others becomes an issue.10 Thank you.

I have often thought of this many times. Very good. Ten! Sincerely, Connie Webb PS I think they may be better printing affirmations on the hearts like: You're beautiful, You're intelligent, You're Creative, You're Fantastic! Then the hearts wouldn't be as heartbreaking. Maybe we need to start a business? Take care.

Your writing is good....I never liked those candies anyway! thank you.
