Thanks so much Teri. Unfortunately, too many know of this state. However, I'm glad you enjoyed my post

Definitely a poem of reality. It is so true that in the beginning love is somewhat blind and the heart does indeed fall prey to the feelings. And unfortunately for some as time passes the love diminishes and the heart is not longer joyful. You did very well in writing about the passing of time and the change of feelings. Good luck in the contest.

I am glad the poem rang true! True heartache can cause big health problems. Too many go through that.
Thanks for a great review

When love is
replaced with lust
Bitter sorrow
Is the outcome
***
Unrequited love leads to frustration, sometimes to acts unwarranted. This is very well written with a smooth flow of words, making for a very good read.

Comment from planetjanet
This is really good, I love the rhythm you create with similar sounding words.
In the first stanza "wined, kissed, dined" all past tense, and in the last stanza, "Other's heartache, Lover's mistake".
The middle is the best, I almost want to sing it, "Laughter ended, Both pretended" but I can't quite pinpoint what makes it so good (I do not claim to be a poet or English teacher).
That first line, it feels like a struggle, but the first line of the last stanza brings it to happy close. Well, maybe not emotionally, but rhythmically.
Thank you for sharing, and good luck in the contest.

Bucketlist, this is a very well written Minute poem entry for the contest. All syllables are in check with a story line that flows well to express a scene that is all too apparent nowadays. So many relationships that sink before they can swim because the foundations were not checked and strengthened before the knot was tied. Well done on this reality of a read and good luck in the competition. ~DD

Jill, I feel honored that you grade my penning so highly. My friend, it's always good to know you enjoy my poetry.That is my target each time. Thank you very much.

A very well-written minute poem. When love goes wrong, the ones involved are surely get hurt by each other. When we start a relationship we take a chance with a stranger, sometimes it works well, other times it's doomed to end badly.

Comment from bertranclan
I enjoyed your Minute poem, albeit was about unrequited love. I know all about that personally, so it was kind of comforting to read about, however sad that is. Good luck to you in the contest.

I think poetry on this site yields a lot of emotional memories. Kind of cathartic. But it's tough reading if it's sad.
I really appreciate your review and stars. .

This is the usual patteren of most relationships these days. They start off almost like a dream come true then they start going through the motions thay you have described. Thisv is what can be expected from imperfect relationships in an imperfect world. Your minute contest entry is appropriate and you should do well. I know, I keep saying that. Have a great day.

I enjoyed reading your Minute poem "Unrequited Love". All lines and syllables were correct and you chose an appropriate picture. Just one small thing - Line one in the last stanza - 'Twas.
Best of luck in the contest.
