wow, a great entry dear portia! i can really relate, i just broke up with my fiance three days ago because he had too much interest for other women. he broke my heart and threw it away. he stepped over my self-confidence and self-respect.
thank you for sharing!
good luck!
blessings!

    Rebekka,

    You are so kind, Thank you for your review, very kind comments and the six star rating. You did the right thing to break up with him, for he would not have been faithful in marriage if he still had interest in other women. It is sad, yet a blessing to have found this out before you married him. Love you sweetie! Blessings...............Portia

    Ronnie,

    Thanks so much for the outstanding review and the six star rating. Actually the artwork itself inspired me to write this Sonnet. This is my first time writing one, so thanks so much for the very kind comments my friend. Lots of love................Portia

I find that thinking of him in comical situations helps...as well as imagining him losing his hair and growing a big wart. It is better than a cold ledge.
The poem is beautiful and seems to meet the rhyme requirements and meter.

Well your poem certainly made it possible for us to envision how it would feel being on the edge. When we feel beaten by waves of f negative emotions we find it difficult to move in, but we must or we will drown. Well done.

This is a well written poem about getting over the pain of a breakup and being free to find a new healthy relationship. It uses the wall as a metaphor for the feelings you have to get through, around or over to go on with life. It also shows the coldness in the heart at the breakup that has to be melted.

Good luck and keep writing

    Christine,

    This is my first time penning a Sonnet of any kind. I am not sure if the meter follows the guidelines as required. When it comes to different meters I have a problem. I am glad you enjoyed my Sonnet and thank you for your review, very kind comments and best wishes. Blessings...............Portia

The poem evokes emotion in me, a sign of good work. I love the idea, too, of purging the bad part of a past relationship, to recover, and to go on.

This poem explains why most poets are lovers at heart.

A suggestion? In the first stanza, last line, leave out the comma following "purge." Ditto the following stanzas. They are just unnecessary.

A very well written poem. The picture you chose is perfect for the work and really adds depth to the visual that your words paint. The narrative is sad, if this is true to life, I am so sorry that you went through an experience like this. The environment of today has made it more difficult for relationships, damn near impossible frankly. I would like to see another poem with the next chapter of this story! Some healing and new beginnings!
