Judging Comment

This poet created something that I've never seen before, it was not only creative, it was gorgeous from the beginning line to the last one, the metaphors took me in extreme happiness it was just a great read.

Wow! This was really unexpected. Thank you to everyone for these comments. I really almost started crying this made me so happy. I wish I could explain my gratitude. <3

Powerful, emotive write. I can't shake the feeling of that first line, it seems to be embedded in my memory now. Almost seems like this girl had dreamed and longed for somewhere greater, somewhere far beyond Earth and its sorrows. There's such a chilling presence from "him" and a sadness, that now she can be free almost, free from him? Like she felt she had to die to rid her earthly body of him. I liked the idea of flowers growing in her belly, too. Something abstract yet incredible about that.

I'm kind of left breathless at the end, because of the pain this girl was in, the way she chose to end her life, the way she wanted a home. Clarity. Heartbreaking that it had to end that way.

Congratulations on the win, by the way. Keep writing and sharing with us.

This was very deep deeper than the words say.
Loved the title fitted really well, the beauty of nature really added to this piece. Outstanding

Another breath taking piece and very well deserved win definitely has the wow factor
