I stately declare the honor is here and I imagine many that follow feel much the same. You are a monster of touch.

Wonderfully written! You talk about those who chose to be your friend, trust me we feel the same about you! I think your writing goes both ways, it takes away your numb, and it brings us joy. I hope you have many poems left. I need to get my pen....

This is beautiful! You already know....your writing helps so much. Even the ones you think don\'t, are a faucet of untolds! \"A few more still to come\".....a number of unknowns. Reading between the lines, I get it more than you know! πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™

Great piece peto!!
I agree with all these,
Especially with Maxine,
It\'s sad , but intriguing and the two halves should be as one,
Communication is the only way that they can become whole , voicing their concerns and thoughts to one another!
If only Timothy wouldn\'t give up, because I\'m sure she is reaching to him as well, recognizing him as her other half!

Makes me think of hidden love desires...where you just get a glimpse...even though you\'d like to have it all...but there\'s too much pain involved. All fun and games...until reality hits! We can\'t truly grasp it, when we let darkness win!! Bravo!!!!!

Mysterious and enticing.
Temptation is tricky.

The last line poses as if in a stand-off.. will she succumb to the darkness or not..

Clearly I\'m over here on the edge of my seat. haha\'

Great word play-some seek dare instead of truth and that is not meant to end well-at the same time there are some wardrobe mentions to lighten the mood of the poem-

OMG what an excellent play on words...I was wondering how \"Vic N Tim\' would work, splendid as Victoria\'s Secret and Timothy. Also, who is the victim in that mess? You sir, are a wordsmith, Stevie! I really enjoyed reading this!

Reminds me of what Dante once said paradise for the beauty and hell for the company. I\'d also choose hell, such an interesting thought. ❀️

I feel like you see all her struggles and pain but can also see her determination and strength. You see the beauty in all of the ugliness she faces.
\"Since relinquishing undeserved portions of blame

Says she don\'t feel herself looks exactly the same \"

\"Took the world on her shoulder and held down the fort\"


\"His assault on her senses was swift and direct

A flamethrower to the heart he had sworn to protect\"


\"Can\'t connect to admirers with young in the nest\"



\"When she offered an inch I had snatched at the mile\"


Beautifully written and undeniably, brutally relatable.
Most times we are not looking for someone to swoop in and save us. To fix us. We are looking for someone capable of acknowledging everything you have captured in this poem and loving us enough to fix themselves so they stop doing this to us. Not just a magical fix all.
So beautifully written and truly capturing the depth of situations without too many words. Wonderfully done.
Half of the battle and usually the hardest part is finally facing yourself and recognizing you are the problem and loving yourself and the other enough to take the steps to fix it.

The girl on the verges in your life , is a great one and she deserves to be happy,
I get a sense that you can be the man to make her happy!
Her and the young in her nest,
Write on my dear friend, you\'re great and your messages come through loud and clear,
Don\'t give up on her,

This is a wonderful yet all too familiar heartbreaking story! Your rhyme and cadence could not be more spot on. I look forward to these every morning, Stevie. Definitely a fave!

I\'ve come to look forward to these!

\'His assault on her senses was swift and direct
\'A flamethrower to the heart he had sworn to protect \'
Like secretly sending sparks or inspiration to help her along.
Love this!

The mind can be our worst enemy!
and sometimes nothing even comes close to slowing the circles it takes us in.. just to make it stop..for a moment..

\'For the space
To disgrace\'
If only we could do our \'ugly\' in the dark. Most times we do, yet we feel it is seen as if painted on our faces.

This one feels like a letting go of sorts.
Great write!

Too cool to bother with β€˜too much’ I presume! Yet you took your time with this one and created a colorful canvas. I always say the art needs to stand out more than the artist…

What a fantastic write about something so real and horrifying. Really great descriptions and rhyming. I could really see what you were describing

So much empathy in the texture of your words-and it’s not easy to craft gentle words to build this imagery of horror-
watching others suffer is hard but to wait with patience for their arrival makes it even harder-thanks Peto!
