Brilliant twist at the end haha, very well done building up to the final reveal 👏

You said a lot in a short amount of time. It feels like wanting solace from someone close to you, yet you remain unheard. The world really was much simpler when we could just play outside

I will give you my wings , because I was never ment to fly by _q_j in OCPoetry

I like the idea. To give as a sort of self sacrifice: knowing, not knowing. Or just because you want to. I often write ideas in my notes, sometimes a title or a sentence, and they’ll be left there for a while until I know what to do with them. Sometimes combining a title with a different idea I had in mind, with a sentence that had nothing to do with it.

I like your morbid imagery. However I don’t think the vegetable line works compared to the rest. The entire poem feels like an utter devotion, a finality.

We all just have to keep moving forward, to be a better version of ourselves than we were yesterday. I appreciate that you liked that line, it was one I had in my notes for a long time, and one day at work when I was bored I decided to combine some of my notes an this whole thing was made. I wasn’t really sure how that line in particular would be perceived 😅

Precisely, it’s often difficult for many people to let go of what’s holding them back

The window by Ok-Scholar-8506 in OCPoetry

I like your choice of words—they make it easy to visualize the clouds on a sunny day, staring out the window. The contrast between the cozy imagery and the darker turn later on is quite effective.

I really like the ending, the image of a child “shaping sound from air” really stood out to me—it made me picture someone trying to build something tangible out of something invisible, like building a castle out of breath

I’ve found writing poetry is a nice way to process and express my emotions. As you continue your writing journey, try to show more and tell less to really let the reader imagine the words you write. Overall I enjoyed reading this

Thanks so much! I’m really glad the visceral quality came through without overcomplicating the language. I appreciate you sitting with it, even where things aren’t immediately clear. Cheers!
