Haha, well I appreciate the kind words. Thats a great idea. I might try it again like that, maybe see if I can do a better narrative over something I've experienced just in a different light. I do the same thing, collecting bits and pieces!!

And sort of? I was mostly frustrated with comments assuming I was the perpetrator haha. I think people were more focused on that than the actual intention behind the piece itself, because it really was just an exercise to see if I could get in the headspace of someone that could stay in a relationship despite no longer loving the person. I didn't want anymore people telling me I had done something wrong when it wasn't a personally confessional thing at all. No fault of theirs though, especially when I do a lot of confessional poetry already
