Gift of Nothing

I missed this one.. what a powerful ending!

I got chills up my spine for some reason while reading this, i think it hit a little too close to home for my liking, lol
But seriously now, outstanding work!
5/5

I in no way to offend, but--Oh my god!--this is absolutely fascinating. I was totally speechless at the moment I finished reading this piece and so I reread it again to make sure if it's just me or something... nevertheless, it has the same effect on me the moment I read it.
What magic weaves this poem to trick me? =]
I was completely entralled by this piece and by you as well, Ms. Debbie. After all, you're an enchanting poet.
Love,
Debbie

"Somehow I picture nothing
Which is all he gave to me"

This gave me goosebumps . Seriously . Those two lines were the ones that stuck out most, and I feel it was the perfect way to end it . Beautifully done . You`r poetry is ah`mazing .
