Tristan Robert Lange said:
Wonderful poem. Society paints an image for everyone to aspire to live up to and, then, tragically so many buy into it and spend their lives trying to live up to an unrealistic image. Years of anxiety, eating disorders, expensive procedures, hours of makeup prep...and for what? Oh, and we men fall into it too, just differently. This poem\'s message is so important and you are right, true beauty comes from within. Well done. 🌹👏

A wonderful and powerful message set in great metaphor all too real. I too have asked why what we are is never good enough. Why do we want to be someone else? Is it possible that someone else wants to be us? Poor self esteem runs rampant.

Dear Tobani, this is a heartfelt read of the pain and aftermath that comes when a marriage disintegrates. It can certainly play havoc with confidence if you happen to be the one dumped. I see that this poem was written in 2006. I certainly hope that the heaviness and hurt has lessened. A finely written poem, I might add, flows beautifully.

I was married for 58 glorious years and lost my wife over 2 years ago. it\'s not the same as going through a divorce which I\' ve not experienced but the hurt is there just the same and as such this superb poem resonates.

Being married and having almost gone through a divorce myself, I get this. The first line hit me hard because I have been there and, honestly, still wonder if I am still there sometimes. And this is relatable even beyond marriage. I think a lot of people will find themselves relating in one way or another. Well done, Tobani! 🌹👏

This poem is deffinately in a minor key. I\'m impressed with the beat and tempo that are so on point. This flow was almost hypnotic and carried through to the very end amazing in a poem of this length. Impressive and very well done

A powerful write where the author\'s emotions are right out there. I too would advocate for safety but removing the weapon will only lead to the invention of a new one instead find the cause and remove it.

A very topical write Tobani and one which fills me with fear. Indeed, what has happened? Whatever it is, it needs to be dealt with swiftly. Harsh penalties for a starter, for carrying a knife and stop and search, plus education in schools and a multitude of others. Social media has played its part too. A complex situation which is out of control. You write so well about it.

So well composed Tobani. A poem with a message about a She Devil. I would imagine many a dumped bloke thinks he was dealing with one of those. Much enjoyed.
