Sending wrong signals will cause a break-up every time. Your words adequately deliver the message, and your chosen artwork gives the perfect visual. Best wishes in the contest.

While you have the correct syllable count, I can't see much in the way of poetic devices. You do have alliteration with send and signals. Off and wrong is near rhyme. Still, this 'poem' doesn't read smoothly.

Signal crossing is a big problem in some relationships. If a good discussion on the mixed messages happens and the problem can't be solved, then it would be time to go separate way.
Keep writing and stay healthy
Good luck in the contest

This is one of those heartbreaking poems where the love didn't last and the break-up was the only course of action to take. It happens all the time, but that's how we learn to know the right one when it happens. Well done, this is a very expressive short poem. Good luck! :)) Sandra xx

Fifteen words, you did it! It seems so fitting, this theme in brief!

Is it me or do couples tend to call it quits faster these days??

Not working? On to the next!

Smile...

A universal truth is, understanding is the best thing in the world. If you and your mate do not understand each other, you may not be able to successfully communicate. This leads to the kind of problems that lead to breakups.

I can see this being said, directly or on a card. Sad for sure but staying the course may be more dreaded, I'm sure. .......................................................................

I love the way that the tone of this poem is perfect for the subject. When it gets to that point, no emotion and short and sweet is what is needed to do the job!

You have made excellent use of your fifteen words to describe one of the most common and most painful human experiences. Unrequited love is indeed devstating.
