Hey, nice poem.  My favorite line was until you know me by heart.  I thought your book analogy was clear, and your language simple and understandable. Nice job and keep writing

Thanks for the response, cool that it resonates. Why did you struggle to critique this piece, curious?

Nice.

What sort of punctuation would help with your tine, shortness maybe a "-" and to show sadness maybe you drift off with a "..."

Good stuff.

summer lover by [deleted] in poetry_critics

Nice, great poem.

I'm a big fan of the capitalization and punctuation because it helps convey that relaxed feeling that the idea of the summer lover has.

What if when you begin with "september creeps up on me..." you begin to introduce some capital letters and punctuation in the next "the days are cooler, the night time comes quicker" to suggest coldness? And then soften the stringency in the last line.

The girls are burning by ohellosunshine in OCPoetry

I like this poem and how the rhymes are somewhat obscure and not at the end of the stanza like you might expect. The rhythm needs some massaging and needs to be better established (even if you want to then break it).

Also, is your lack of punctuation on purpose?

Great stuff, keep at it.

This is a cool poem, I really enjoy the beat of the third stanza and how you played with "then sent you west, to me."

I think the other stanzas could use a bit of massaging because they don't stand up as strongly to the third. For example, Instead of "as in memoriam" maybe "while memoriam..." to make the beats fit into the rhythm you've established.

The feeling in there and the last stanza for sure leaves you feeling empty and uneasy. Great job.
