  • "beautiful set up, tease and success, closed out with an "if..." You tell of the world that lives within a momentary glance so well."

  • "isn't that a bitch? No matter how hard you try... there they are, behind closed eyes. *sigh*"

  • "good god, how cliche to say "get out of my head, stop living my life". I'm in awe, just from how amazingly I fit into this write by relation alone. And that ending line, to finish it off... Ivy covering a tree, as if embracing, but rather just climbing, suffocating, killing as it seeks to absorb all that is light for itself..."

  • "I can imagine myself parked on a bench, warming my hands by this "fire that makes me alive"... can't say I'd be in a suit, but... :) Amazing write that put me there with you, walking to the same beat."

  • "holy... . . . it feels so inadequate to say I relate hugely to this piece, down to the depths of what I used to be. I'm struggling to find myself again, and to not apologize for doing so, and this one... yeah. an explosion of regret is hidden in these words."

  • "...and as often as I come back to read this, I should fave it, right? So there, I did, it's done."

  • "yeah, still... ya know? Reading this almost makes me feel guilty, as if I were the "he" in the shadows. Exquisite telling of a tearful tale."

  • "scathing finality, but I can't help but saying... good for you! then... I can't help but notice that we seem to write in similar cycles. HA! is that a good or bad thing?"

  • "Ya know, I remember the day I 1st read this... still hurts. Kudos to you for writing a poem that sticks!"

  • "...and should you cut it out completely, stitching it over... the 'phantom pain' is nearly enough to destroy."

  • "I counter with the fact that an open wound is treatable, and will heal faster with the application of a soothing balm. The internal hurt, however, though maybe lesser, lasts longer, destroying rest/peace/comfort in such a way as to be continuously maddening. Those flinches from that inside hitch... confuses people, so they do not try to understand."

  • "won't let it... sucks to be on the other side of that, wondering why "she" won't let it. painfully poignant."

  • "Holy $#@! - if this isn't written perfection of exactly where I am, then I'm a mangy mongoose! Reading this... I'm almost tempted to say 'staythehellouttamyhead!' - "to fall apart together again" - permission to show this, some day, to explain?"

  • "...or, at least, pretending that I pretend, when really, I'm the one who breaks when she walks away."
    Posted by Sketso on "Role play" by Lylani
  • "... I think I know her ... and I definitely live this ... silly little thing, but it slapped me in the face, making/breaking me as I realize I'm just... a pretender."

  • "... ow ... I can envision the hurt, the ache, the longing... and the sacrifice... good GOD, but that was an intense personal glimpse of tears. I started getting the inkling of oops with the "I will be", then the ending slammed home... torment. What an entry into the world of DP."
