Loved the metaphors in this poem. Perfect fifteen syllables. The short poem brigs out the complete story behind it. Well deserved! Hope to read more such beautiful poems from you.

Your poem is short but so powerful! I love how you share the intensity of heartache with just a few words. The line "pierced by life's sharp thorns" really hits hard. Keep up the amazing work!

Author, this piece is really great. The metaphor is effective, as is the rhyming, and I liked the bonus rhyme in the title.

A couple small suggestions: ditch all the periods (most importantly in in the subtitle) and consider a larger font. Perhaps experiment with some different background colors too; though the current one is alright, perhaps you could come up with something more visually vivid.

Thanks for sharing and good luck with the voters,
