One person's feelings about getting back together19 total reviews
Comment from EeanBlack
I like this. So many times we just need space and time to regress and digest the events of the past. People won't give you any. You give your heart and soul and ask for nothing but a little alone time to collect your thoughts. But when you need more and more time, you realize something is wrong. Then the real work begins.

Thank you so much for your nice review also the six stars. I really appreciate it
Comment from Madeleine Mardis
Yeah, listen to her voice and learn! Sounds like the right decision was reached in the first place! I hope this person treats herself like a queen and doesn't get back together! I'm lucky that way, once I break up with someone, in my younger years I mean,
I'd go through the break-up pain and never ever entertain the thought of getting back together.
Don't know if this is about you, but best wishes! Maddy

Comment from 3rd Sight.
Strong message till the end: The protagonist, is tired of a crummy relationship and needs time to herself, to think things over.. Interesting piece, till the end.

Thank you for the review.
Comment from Christiana Marie
This is beautifully written. The first line "I feel the pressure deep inside of me" packs quite a punch. I could feel my stomach tying into knots as I pictured potential scenarios that could lead a person feel this in their soul.

Comment from zanya
Powerful emotions are expressed here that probably strike a chord with most of us as we struggle to make sense of the many different facets and phases of our lives.

Comment from Debbie D'Arcy
A very emotional plea here for space and time to regain control and agency over oneself. Your skilfully rhyming verse sends out this strong message that will relate to so many who struggle in troubling, unbalanced relationships. Well done, Brenda! Take care Debbie

Comment from Pearl Edwards
Everyone wants to think their voice is heard, particularly in a relationship, but some just don't want to listen. This is a strong voice you've used, Brenda, showing that if you grow in different ways, you have the chance to say, listen to me.
Well written,
valda

"The tongue is the smallest member of the body and causes the most strife." Bible. Your story/poem touched a nerve. No one in a relationship has the right to control their partner. You are unique, and you are free. K xx

Comment from Shanbreen
Brenda, you have captured the turmoil in a person who does not want to be in a relationship but at the same time finds it hard to get out of it.
You state:
"I am afraid the bad habits will return
Thinking about this is a major concern"
The very fact you are thinking about his bad habits and convincing your self that you are making the right choice, implies you still have a spark and would be willing to give him a chance if he can convince you he is finished with his bad habits. Unfortunately (or fortunately) a zebra doesn't change his stripes although once in a while you do find an albino with a "clean" body.
I really liked your poem. It paints your insecurity very well. If I had a 6, I would have given it to you. Thanks for sharing.

Comment from RJ Heritage
Well, this expresses the level of uncertainty and anxiety that might come when lovers or friends try to rekindle a broken relationship. I have gone through this twice in my life, with the same person. Usually, the desire to get back together is felt stronger by one of the parties. But as your words wisely say, it should never be rushed. Nicely put.
