You offer freely a flawless emotion once more. There's a pull while reading your poetry, I swear it... I begin at a distance, only to find my nose pressed against the screen when it’s ended *laughs*.
This is to say, I absolutely love you're writing and feel you deserve to be told that you're a great commodity to this forum.
Lastly..."All of the sadness she kept inside
Deceiving smiles sparkling eyes
Bubbles of laughter
Tears denied" These lines were terrific. I couldn't have asked for a better introduction to this poem.

A great poem...well written, and more importantly, well presented. Keep it up.

This is fantabulous...for lack of a better word....it's like you wrote this for me....perfect length, timing, language...flawless..and it appears effortless....
