I was away from the site for a while, so I have some catching up to do on my favorite authors. I love the sentiment of this one (I think I know from your past writings who the "she" was, but I could be wrong). At any rate it is a gift to be able to know your own self-worth and not let it be subjected to the slings and arrows of others - I'm not there yet, but as I get older, I find I definitely care less about others opinions, and am better able to choose what feedback I let into my life.
Well done.

I love the picture and the words. I think I can interpret, from your author notes, the meaning; however, I would like to hear more. Well done, and I liked the way you placed the words on the page giving each word POWER! Bravo!

Seems like two ex lovers or ex friends met by chance; but, one did not want to speak to the other one; thusly, this one had the courage to leave. Yes, it is good to have strength of character, especially if you think a person might not be good for you. WELL WRITTEN. liberty justice

A suggestion -- Lanturne poems are most often centered so that the "lantern" shape is revealed.
You've met the line and syllable count required. Interesting wording/subject as the short poem makes the reader imagine the rest of the story and it's written in a positive way that allows the reader to find his/her own story within the 5 lines.

Obviously, this poem has more meaning for you than for the reader, but each person can relate to it and think of an incident that fits this poem. Good writing.

Congratulations, your artistry in this poem, especially given its laborious Lanturne difficulty, is exceptional and deserves Fanstory recognition. That said, I think your photo could have been improved for closer affinity to your text. Blessings, john

There is so much I liked about this Lanturne form poem. First, the graphic image you selected. Second, your word choices made a powerful statement. I could really feel the passion of this poem. Additionally, ending the poem with the word "out" was genius!

The poem is definitely short but it packs loaded message for the readers. You followed the requirements for writing Lanturne poetry, there are no grammar and spelling issues as well. Thanks for sharing. God bless.
