I really liked this. It was very intriguing and well written. I’m very curious to read more!

Is there more?

It’s extremely beautiful. Tender and loving with wonderful movement. You’re right, sonnets are some of my favourite.

Very interesting . . . there’s a couple of words used wrongly that I picked up (let me know if you need a proofreader). I’d like to talk to you about some things!

In the gurgling aftermath, like water coming to a boil, emotions steaming off (do they not beautifully call it cartharsis, that old man Aristotle?), you leave me no choice but to leave my trace upon your grounds. A convoluted trace that could be read either way. A whispering trace of , a trace that leads you back to me.

Is it because I desire your coming or I desire your poetry?

I cannot tell. The act of writing, the moment itself, consumes my rationality. Writing takes no prisoners. Even as I try to stem that onslaught of the first line, which I rearranged into

my ache, complete deconstruction
a break, of a soul Love loves not

even as I realise the Name-of-the-Father and the Name-of-the-Father realises me in turn, the mirror which tells me I exists within and ceases to exist without, no existence should be thrusted upon another, no stranger upon another stranger. Covet not thy words, my conscience warns. But

the onslaught of poetry, yields a Self hidden from the Name-of-the-Father, attracts/ me to the light/ In a state of fugue/ to stalk flame’s heart

Thunderror – that’s a nice little line, are you a poet too?

Scott – thanks so much, I really wanted that intense feeling

Edward – Thank you so much, your compliment means a lot to me, and I’m also really glad the imagery came through. I’m really excited about your contest, if I start getting any kind of readership I’ll be sure to promote it.

I must say I think the third section especially is wonderful. You’ve provided a window into the feelings and desires expressed in your well chosen words.

“The raw pain of romance fills my lungs so I cannot speak”

This line shot out. Perfectly true and something all people will relate to.

The short repetition you use throughout is indicative of thoughts flickering through the mind which I took from this piece.

Wonderful writing.
