Comment from Pam (respa)
-Glad to see you back and I have one 6* left so I can give it to you!
-Good writing, as usual, but sorry for whatever may have gone wrong.
-Each stanza tells the reader another piece of the story.
-Good examples of this, strictly from the poetic sense, are:
* "All my doubts and fears
Find now they're coming true" You don't leave doubt in the reader's mind right from the beginning.
* "Know it would be easy
To fallback in your arms" I think as you go through the poem, you are showing the reader what is going on in your mind.
-The last two stanzas sum things up about the quandary you are probably in.
-I hope you are able to work things out for whatever is the right decision for you.

You are very welcome for the 6* and the review. No problem for taking a while for the response; however, you had many of us bamboozled, as we are putting all those wishes, etc. out there, and it was all in your imagination. I guess we have learned:) Hope you are going to be writing more now.
Comment from Sasha
This is brilliantly written and, sadly, one that a few of us can relate to. Personally, I tend to be gun-shy and think I would not let him in. If he left the first time, I doubt I would trust he wouldn't do it again. Marvelous job with this one. I enjoyed it very much.

Comment from Carolyn 'Deaton' Stephens
Hi there TK,
Good to read your fine work again. This poem really tells it like it is. Some people do play games in love They find a new love, or at least a new interest and leave without any thought. About how much it will hurt the one they are leaving. Then here they come back, knocking on your door to pick up where they left off. I agree, accept with caution.
Good read, :-) Carolyn

Hey TK. Very nice poem and boy I can relate. You must read my new post, 'As Life Goes On'. Reminds me of him coming knocking at my door. Of course, I let him in, but still said goodbye. He hasn't been back. that has been awhile. Love can be heartbreaking, huh, my friend? Good job. Loved it. Miss Sally

Comment from Jay Squires
Good choice of a title for your excellent poem, tarnished. It hearkens back to the past, and anyone who knows the lyrics would agree your title was well chosen.
Enjoyed reading your poem. Maybe you can leave the security chain attached just to get a peek at him.

Ah, yes the old lover who returns when things are bad or they're down on their luck. Are they playing us or is it our own weakness that allows it. Nicely made and great theme.

Comment from Brett Matthew West
Seriously doubt if the person knocking is worth letting in a second time. Probably found grass not greener on the other side of the hill as they supposed it would be. Would not let them in either. Just asking for more heartache if you do.
