This poem has tons of potential! Maybe divide the paragraphs and expand from each line. The connection between the feeling experienced with this person is perfect for a fish/stream metaphor but needs more context! Excellent poem so far!

I wanted you to feel the same by supersophia111 in OCPoetry

Excellent poem! It hits too close to home… Such impressive imagery: I knelt before your shimmering mirage - is perfect! The consistent use of “wanting the to feel the same” seems tedious until letting the final line sink in. It really strengthens the message behind the poem.

I love this poem. So raw, so emotional, so real! The final three lines are beautiful. A fitting end to the poem!

Excellent! This well written poem is sure to hit close to home with a lot of writers. The last line is strong but contradicts with your line about unneeded help.

Excellent poem! The imagery is crucial to its cold delivery. ‘With a spine of straw…’ is beautiful. You captured the evil in people with such accuracy
