This is truley a great piece which now brings out that hidden talent you have with words, very well balanced with good rythme, just one thing which I thought you could pherhaps change, you use the words no-regrets twice, which you may get pulled on by other reviewes, its up to you if you want to change this, for me personaly its fine, just thought I would point this out to you. but well done.

jamar,
Thank you for your very encouraging words and great review!. You are right about the repetition. I get 50/50 mix on those for sure. I'm glad you think it works here.
Your honesty is most welcome.
Regards,
Sue

Sue - You are so right. You've got to let go of the anger and forgive, for you will suffer more. Thanks for the reminder, the great rhyme with even better flow/pace. Charlie.

Comment from bard owl
THis is an excellent testament to forgiveness. Your words should touch the hearts of all who read them. I truly think forgiveness is one of the hardest things for a human being to forgive. Best of luck in the contest. Blessings, Linda

Comment from Fleedleflump
I love the image of the heart bleeding songs; it speaks beautifully of the deep yearning to express ones self, and how painful, even debilitating, poetic honesty can be at times. Forgiveness is a fantastically difficult thing appreciate.

I totally agree with this poem. You did a great job capturing what happens when we do not forgive from the heart. Thank you for reminding us to do so.

Comment from Domino
Hi, Sue.
I make your notes right. Forgiveness/hate only hurts the holder not the recipient.
Unusual and difficult ABBA rhyme scheme.
Very skilful, heart-felt and portic words to portray your sentiments. Has to be both ways, of course for healing to be complete. Best wishes, Ray xx

Comment from SunlitWhisper
Lovely poem and it flows very nicely as do the rhymes. The message is clear and gentle good luck with your entry
Holding grudge, we're scarred and beset
With more wounds, we add to those wrongs
As the heart, the heart always longs
To lay down those weapons that threat

Comment from flea0420
Forgiveness is freedom. The picture you chose portrays this. You paint a picture of how our hearts are shackled without forgiveness. "the heart always longs". Excellent.

flea, in your review, you said I painted a picture. This, to me, is the highest review one can get. I'm new at writing and to have it read that way is the ultimate encouragement to keep on. I'm so glad you liked this work. With regards, Sue
Comment from dportwood
Sixteezkid,
You built yourself quite a challenge by restricting to two rhyming words and the abba rhyming scheme. 'No Regret' carries a nice life's message.
Good job.

Comment from Poet Gone Mad
This was really enjoyable. I liked the rhyme scheme that you used here. I also thought that the line "As the heart, the heart always longs" was a nice repeat in each of the stanzas. Really nice job and an enjoyable read.
