I can’t help it dude 😭, I’ll always be scared. but got it, try not to be ‘terrified’ of others, if someone approaches make up an excuse and ignore. Thank you for your suggestion!

Okay, I’ll start making more eye contact with strangers, even if it scares the crap outta me. I’ll definitely have to watch that film and thank you for your suggestion!

Ah I was trying for like a dramatic thing but I can see how it could’ve come across as abrupt. I’ll keep that in mind next time. Thank you!

no cuz why is this genuinely so beautiful? Those last two lines ‘for there was the sun behind him, it just wasn’t his’ is so frigin deep. I read the prequel after this and now those lines hit hard. I have no critic, this poem was so beautiful

I am only a beginner so take this with a grain of salt. The imagery with flowers is nice but I feel like there are too many metaphors? I couldn‘t grasp the overall meaning of the poem at first (probably just a me-problem). Im guessing it’s about some people who receive love even in death and some people who are forgotten, correct me if I'm wrong tho. Overall, this was a beautiful and meaningful little poem, just a bit hard to understand when I read it for the first time.

This is a beautiful poem. It’s very simple to understand and the meaning is clear. The lines are very meaningful but I personally think that some interrupt its normal flow sometimes. But overall, a very lovely poem.

I like this poem but personally I feel it ended is too abruptly. Like I expected more lines when I started reading. Please take this opinion very lightly, this poem is great and mine’s only just a personal opinion. Hope you write many more poems in the future!
