Losing a loved one is very hard, losing one to substance abuse is even harder. Thank you for sharing this emotionally filled contest entry with us. Good luck with the contest.

Thank you Dolly
This one had a very personal feel, I've recently lost a former friend to addictions. He couldn't straighten out his life, even with help of family and friends. He was my age mid-fifties but looked decades older. Walking my old dog and thinking of him inspired this poem.

Author,
I like your comparison of the old house, your dog, etc. to describe your grief for the subject of this poem.
Nice words for these feelings.
Good luck in the love poem poetry contest.

Thank you for your positive review of my poem. I mostly write fiction prose. This was a departure for me, perhaps I should write more poetry. This one has gotten tremendous feedback, including yours, so thanks again.

This reflective poem was very sad, but well-written in a lovely way. I like the way you just trailed off at the end of the poem. Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.

I thought this was well done. I especially liked the last line. Your writing captures raw emotions with honesty and clarity. It's impossible for your writing to not resonate deeply with anyone who has experienced loss or emotional turmoil. Thank you for sharing such heartfelt words.

Thank you for such a positive review of this poem and my other stories as well. Its comments like this that spurn writers on to greater heights. I barely write poetry, I don't think I write it very well. Your comments have bolstered my confidence.
