The Diseased Rose Comments

The worse plague in the world is the unrequited feelings of love, To me its toxic and I avoid it as a chicken avoids a knife. That being said this is a lovely work, filled with an amazing syntax and metaphors, extremely personal. Id say there's other fish in the sea but when you find a prized one its hard to see another

Oh this sound so heartfelt...to me it was a very good, great job Ace...and no matter if the flower is diseased rose, it still rose and still it lovable...at same tree could be will be new bud waiting for bloom...no matter how bad the rose it, the smell not effected...but now you must consider that one diseased rose not rot your root, but only the rose will broken...and you, you will flowering new when time is ready and when weather is helping_Soul

I don't write 'Proper Poetry', I write till it satisfies me. I use as many words I feel I need to do it. For me it is an emotional release and practice at writing. You can keep the haiku, because I have more to say then just that when I write. Sometimes we are trying to tell a story, and even the shortest ones are multiple paragraphs long. We are given a huge language, and if all we do is write 4 line poems, it is a waste of the language.

beautiful but some long.no matter good job. in my opinion poetry should b as short as possible. poem of 4 lines can b elaborted to 400 pages.thnx for sharing
