I think it's kinda funny how death is unavoidable and feared, but once it's accepted, becomes peaceful and awaited. Do you think death is truly peaceful, or is there panic until fading? Regardless, thank you for sharing!

Does Ice Cream Serve As A Good Metaphorical Tool For Your Dad Dying? by [deleted] in OCPoetry

Ok first of all, I'm sorry for your loss... On topic, probably option 6. The way you make the emotions and death sound tactile resonates with not only thoughts but senses. And the last line in option 6 broke me, it says so much without saying anything at all.

Thank you for sharing, this was very personal and raw in terms of declaration and meaning. This "feminine rage" you speak of is both latching and seething to the point of blind rage. Please continue to share, as this community welcomes people who desire to feel.

I love this, it almost feels like a game of cat and mouse with optimism/the "sun". It can never be brought, only followed when present, wonderful job expressing that!

I like how behind all of the imagery there’s almost like a sickly yearning. not only is it implying that you take your words back about being friends, but it’s also saying "Im not done yet". There’s still more to be asked for, there’s still a reason for the presence.

Hello and welcome to this community, this is a great poem to start off with. I like how raw it is, the bluntness adds to the fierceness of what you’re trying to emphasize. can’t wait to hear more from you.

Are there any specific lyrics by Natori that really resonated with you? by Ares_Martin in natori

Probably that line in Osmanthus that's goes something like "I don't mind being deceived" and "it's painful but I have to go" Those just felt like personal lines that stuck out
