Good poem with words flowing well and rhyming and telling such a sad story. How one is missing the love of someone else. Wanting that love to reappear.

this was worthy of several reads to really let it sink in. the skill and depth with which this was written became more and more apparent with each read. this is really excellent. the form is perfect. the thought process and flow amazing. the depth of feelings expressed I understand in every way and I hope others are lucky enough to have experienced them like this. I believe this is the first work of yours that I have run across. what a wonderful introduction. love you already. mike

You have crafted an almost violent expression of your love for one who is absent. You describe the imagined rage that would permit you to be even more descriptive. Is this person gone forever? Well done.

The ache and longing for the other person is palpably painful. "Palpably painful," I like that phrase.

It never seems to drop out of character, the view of the world is always from the writer's perspective.

Something that made me read it a couple times, to better and better like it.

I guess, being the life of a mistress or prostitute can be lonely...Though, think this poem can even hold true if one is not, except for the last stanza seems to suggest it's a relationship of distance...And,the poem suggests very much she is in love with this client...

Few pieces truly strike a cord with me as this one has. I am never quite sure if relationships between two truly understand the way it is when it's over. A seriously good write for me this morning. Thank you. xoxo Kiwi

A very strong emotional display in this poem, it digs deep, the first stanza comes out strong and the passion continues, it makes a personal connection with the reader, most anyone would like to receive a response like this, nice piece.

A lovely free verse. 'You cannot expect me to read your mind while I am losing mine' - a good start to your poem. 'complex, cohesive, concrete' nice use of alliteration. A good love poem. Regards Dorothy
