Very insightful and beautifully written. Good words of wisdom in there. It is best to find and love ourselves first. So many don't and when it doesn't work out their world falls apart. When we are blind to ourselves we are more easily blinded by others. We are in a better position to find true and lasting love when first we know and love ourselves. Great work ... best wishes in the contest! :)

Comment from Pegcook
Love the illustration. The song is nice, although this listener has some difficulty catching all of the lyrics. The rhymes work well together. The last line of the poem, the decision "to love the person that's me" is very wise.

Comment from mfowler
This theme has been worked really well in this poem about love lost. It shows a woman seeking to break away, to find herself again after giving all to a relationship. I enjoyed your verse with its lovely rhythm evoking emotion, and your clever use of alliteration in making the words flow smoothly.

I think this is an extremely good poem. It is so short but says so much. You used fantastic words and this is the first poem I've actually liked on here, congrats.

This was a really nice poem, the rhyming was good and I liked the couplets style, some great alliteration also, my favourite pair were the last ones, good writing,
