Ren,

Your writing really is going from strength to strength.
I love the way you have formatted this, it gives the reader a real sense of falling with you, as it were.
As for that absurd saying 'sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me' - well, don't get me started there!

Take care

Wow, a sad powerful write. You conveyed so well how one person can destroy you bit by bit. Then when you have been reduced to rubble and you actually leave they seem surprised by that. Well done-

loving the layout, but still, I would like to see Janis enable us to do more with the words. I feel if this ever happens this piece could be a visual masterpiece. Great job though with one arm tied behind your back!

The way this is written almost makes the readers heart swoop downwards as well. 'in your eyes I fail'. That line got to me.

Nicely done

Ren,
what a beautiful piece. The layout is spot on.. well done!

The layout is simply so pleasant to read.
And I really love the first line.
``your words hurt``...
I know we hear these words often, but something is different about it here, and I can't make out what. Maybe because you chose to start the poem with those words. I simply love it.
A beautiful write with hues of sadness.
Lovely. :)

I think we have all been here or is it just me a million times over lol.. I love the set up of this and most definitely the words.

This is brilliant. ...I can feel the hurt and the feelings of the writer. ..The layout is also well presented. .

Well done Ren .
