Nice entry for the Short Poem writing prompt Contest. Good syllables count and connection between lines. I like the presentation too. Good luck in the contest.

This work has reached the exceptional level

It is best for people to follow their instincts. Sadly, so many of us do not, and in the end we are devastated. It is easier to blame the partner when we do it to ourselves. As long as we remain in denial, the signs will continue to appear. When someone loves you, they show you. Actions speak louder than words when it comes to showing how much you are loved. Thank you.

Speaking as a guy, I hope the last line isn't literal! This paints a picture of a very common issue - a lack of clear communication. Sometimes, people just don't understand one another.

The break couldn't be clearer in this well written short poem for the contest. Those short poems are difficult to write. You've done very well. Good luck in the contest. Ulla:)))

A very short but a very sad poem, there are a lot of failures in relational couplings these days. It's a sad indictment on our society, well done, my friend, good luck, blessings Roy

These words are often exchanged between quarreling partners. Often they do not execute on this threat. A dramatic last verse might have been more appealing. Good luck in this contest.

I like this poem - it could easily be tweaked into a country song or a rock song, reminds me of Hendrix's song, "foxy lady". but it works in this short format as well.

I like that the poem is short and not so sweet. A long awaited bitter end! It's a good image you paired it with as well! I can feel how emphatic the final line is

A wonderful poem. Very real in thought. It sounds like someone just tell me this. This poem is a wonderful entry for heartbreaking romance, breaking up with someone is heartbreaking.

You have done a great job with the prompt, as you
told of heartbreak using fifteen words.

The photo was a perfect choice, and I appreciate your
presentation.

Even if necessary, breakups are often a life-altering event.
I think it is rare to remain friends after.

Thanks for sharing.
