Whew this haiku SLAPS 🥹
That was so heartbreaking! 😭😭😭 So few words but so powerful!
I felt this! Powerful words that say so much in so little space! Well done!
So much said in so few words. Well done.
I often create things that go unnoticed and hate when "authority" figures dismiss your work without even looking. I have seen parents put down children, and work colleagues put people down, and I feel that Vocal Challenge moderators treat me in that way, but I will keep on going and prove them wrong. Great words
Already know I love this, but well done. Really felt the crushed part and to get across so much frustration in just 9 words. Also, using creativity for the first line was excellent!
