Your contest entry read well, Mystery Author, though it was
poignant. The picture was a perfect choice. Your words were
well thought out and descriptive of that sad event. Yes, when
one of the couple is out of sync, problems occur and must be
dealt with or. . . as you said.
Thanks for sharing and best wishes in the contest. Jan

This is quite nice but very straightforward. It left me looking for more, and I know fifteen words is not many to get a point across, and I commend you for that accomplishment, but perhaps another look at your word choices would carry this piece a bit further than its end. It's what I look for in these shorts because they are so short. Best, JohnC

Well, that was short and sweet. Lol. You got my attention and stated your case. There is no sense in pronging the relationship. This was a very direct poem. Kind of reminds me of the harshness of middle school. Fun read.

    Thank you for your kind review! I don't have a girlfriend I wrote this for the contest as a heartbreaking poem. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Attractions come and go. It is hard to find one that both of you can share your love and like the same things. One day you will meet your soulmate and all will be well. Best wishes for your writing prompt short poem.

Breaking up is never easy, even if one is wanting to be free. Romance is tricky, to say the least, and you captured that frustration here. Thanks for sharing, and best wishes to you.

Breaking up is really hard to do, more so for one half of the equation than the other. You picked a good picture where her sadness shows but he is hiding his thoughts. Wrong signal.

Nice artwork you chose for your writing. This poem is short but contains all the information needed to understand what's going on with the two lovers. Great job and best wishes in the contest.

This definitely fits the bill of a heartbreaking romance, particularly given the perfect artwork choice. I've never thought of it exactly that way before, but it works and in just fifteen words.

Wishing you all the best in the booths with this short heartbreaking romance.

The first lines of these words flow and connect well. The last line says
it all! The author's words have a clear straight forward message! I liked
the explanation given which leads to the last line. The poem flows and
connects well. The artwork is awesome!
