Oh-oh. Not a good prognosis for this lovesick couple. Hopefully the sourness will go away and become sweetness again. Best of luck in the contest. Marilyn

Thanks Marilyn. Thankfully not a personal experience but you have to admit most people go through the sweet and sour of love life.

Thanks for the review. I've been told I'm very romantic, just wanted to write something with a difference

Love it! It's a great writing prompt and very well laid out. Especially like your back ground colour. Red is my favourite colour.
Enjoyed the piece your heart filling the world with sweetness.
It's nice to actually read something in a poem just lately that is not always downbeat.
Well done!

Thus speaks one who has loved and lost, I presume? It leaves a bitter taste as well. Your poem captures the 'emotional emotions' that the presence and absence of love can make us feel.

Thanks for your review. Not a personal loss but I do know there are plenty who have.

This is a very well written love poem you have penned in 15 words. You started out with love and sweetness and then ended up feeling sour. Very good job you have done. Blessings, Teri

Author I'm not certain I intellectually understand your poem, but on an intuitive level, I get it.

Excellent and most apt perspective for a love poem and I wish you much luck in the voting booth. :)

Thanks for your review. Not sure what you mean by intellectually understand. I was trying to show that love can lead you on a j6that doesn't always end happily.
