Patty,

It's unclear to me who's standing on principle - her or him? *smile* Either way, pride seems to be getting in the way of this particular love story. Hope it works out! hahaha! Good luck!

This poem is easily recognise to anyone who has fallen in love and made a mistake. I liked the picture and found both picture and poem told a story. Good luck in the contest and thank you for sharing.

    thank you so much for your warm review. This poem was a pleasure to write - though the poetic form was more difficult than I thought! I appreciate your kind words of encouragement,

I think when we are in the thick of an argument, we never think of the consequences, but rather our point of view, and when the argument is over, we analyse and wonder whether it was all worth it. The people we know, love and care about are our comfort in this big scary world. I love the layout of your poem and its sentiments are real and straight from the heart Patty, love Dolly x

You said it well. A breakup is traumatic. It changes lives and often effects last for years. The rejected waste time and effort trying to get a lover to return, but that won't happen, because boredom set in and the ex-lover feels only annoyance at begging. When it was over "one little thing" it's probably NOT that...just the final straw.

    thank you so much for your thoughtful review of this poem. It is too bad how much time is wasted on a love that is gone.

Wonderful job. A great example of nonet poetry.
Can't find a thing wrong with it so, six stars it is.
Two poems in two days, I don't know what to think. WOW!
Good luck in the contest.
