Ah this is a stinging moment, but yes she has to "play it cool." She feels she must assure herself. If not an identical situation, we've all been in one where you want to close your eyes and disappear. She handled it better. The picture well compliments the short description that tells so much, with powerful description of emotion. Nice job! Blessings! ~ Pat

Thank you for a very well-written poem and a good interpretation of the artwork. What I like about it is that the poem arouses your curiosity. It made me wonder; Who would leave a beautiful woman alone? Is there something beyond her beauty that drove the man away? Well done.

Maybe he legged it after she lifted her leg, grimaced and farted, but didn't apologise, though I'd probably stay around just the once, as she's quite a Babe. :-)
Seriously you create an excellent atmosphere of a false face we all put on at times to cover our embarrassment or rejection.
Nice one.
Best wishes, Ray.

Comment from RGstar
I can't say she looks too worried about his leaving, yet looks are deceiving.
Nice image, yet we are left wondering of the circumstances of his leaving considering she seems to be at a bar. Perhaps the intrigue is part of the charm of not knowing.
Best wishes,
RG

Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
Excellent metaphor in this short poem. Rejection is a hard emotion to hide, but some get so used to it, they do it naturally. Really well written poem and the illustration enhances the words perfectly. xsx sandra

Excellent metaphor.
I liked the meaning of your poem: Honey attracts the bee, but doesn't always retain its interest.
Beautiful like the Rose, but the thorns create a hasty exit.
You said it all. We have seen that are solo, smiling at the empty chair. Should I approach? I don't dare.

I like this poem. Women especially attractive women have this aura of never being rejected. But it happens to everyone, I love the picture you have , it brings an illustration to your poem that matches perfectly

Good poem that makes the reader want to know more. Lots of intrigue here. A great pairing of graphic and poem that really helps to paint the scene.
Nicely done.
Rose.

Comment from nomi338
In the real world, simply being attractive is no garuntee of happiness. The world is full really of attractive people. Thanks to cosmetics and cosnetic surgery, beuaty can belong to anyone who can afford it. The quest then is to become the person that someone feels that they cannot live without. Not because of cosmetic beauty, but because of that intangible beauty of spirit. Very good thought provoking poem.

This short piece is full of contradiction and intrigue. I get the feeling that this attractive young woman is taking time to sort out an unexpected problem.
