Amberlee, I also enjoyed this poem. Firstly, I love the title and thet is what drew me to read it. My favourite stanza is: - 'I am writing this and hoping that its meaning, my meaning, THE meaning will mean something to you now'. I thought that was very clever. Thanks Amberlee Gypsy
I really liked this poem, especially this part: 'So, I won't say I love you 'cause those words mean more than something now- and I won't say I miss you 'cause it gets lost in translation.' simply stunning! well done for this lovely poem! ! ! HBH
