- "you have a unique way of perfectly capturing pain filled emotions and holding them in your 'genie lamp' page; only to have them released on the readers who are drawn to rub the words out of their bottle and hit hard as they escape."

- ""Why take the risk with all
at stake, to make mistakes
we'll always make?
Just to call yourself
my lover?" Wow. Strong, seamless, resonant. Well done, miss."

- "Each pause perfect, each line felt. Such a delicate flow, seeming to be without all the over the top emotions, resigned, and yet not dismissive...Wonderful write!"

- "so much pain, loss of trust. losss of everything. SO much easier to just hate and move on but our hearts dont work that way. We allow ourselves to be hurt over and over and we just keep loving.....until we hate..."

- ""Why is it that the more permanent something is
the more excruciating it becomes?" - I relate to the sentiments in this piece very much...I would give anything to have a conversation with my father and sometimes the yearning sad futility of it seems overwhelming. I have no encouragement, I guess, other than I understand how you feel and you are not alone in these thoughts. "

- "Oh and I meant, the guy, not the poem, with the "not all bad things don't have a means to change"...oh god that make me sound like a bitch."

- "Not all bad things don't have means to change. I love how you keep it to the point...do not get me wrong, it comes out just so right, whether you have a way pf making it that way or it's just the emotion you put inside of it."

- "Your poems about your mother end with a little black hole. A black tunnel. It is most likely because that is how you feel inside. I'm so positive that someone out there will take you in and gave you all the love you feel your missing. You're smart, you're creative and anyone that can't see that is a moron."

- "What a brave, brave person you are, writing about something so deep and personal. I feel for you, I do. That made me a little sad, but in a good way. You take phrases that could be flooded with a million metaphors and they just come at so naturally and vague, but still beautiful. I can only imagine all the sickness you had, and believe me, I can fathom it. I'm so sorry for you."

- "i have been there too , the waiting the holding of my mothers hand as she laboured silently it seemed and when the last breath wa over all i saw was the floor on which i fell to my knees because I had just lost the first woman i had ever loved. My best friend my mother someone who truley loved me unconditionally.
You are right there is no beauty in death only sorrow, "
