    Can't say I appreciated the other two poems this week, they were, in turn, vacuous and pretentious, but yours is a very good poem, well-wrought, heartfelt, enjoyable - clear without being stative, powerful without being melodramatic.

    Brilliant! Your words left me heartbroken but also overcome by a sensual wave. The bit with his lips being the brim of the glass was amazing! I could just sense the loneliness uttered by those few lines. Your beginning stanza was just perfect! You just got right to the point without forcing and "cutesy" introductions.

    ^I adored the subtle rhyme here! Just came so naturally.

    I loved this poem and want to read it again and again. The more I read it, the more my heart aches for the person in the poem. You made everything just come alive so easily. Wonderfully done!
