I almost wished I was dead when you
Buried me in apathy and
Then haunted me for an age
But your absence is like
My medicinal
Salvation and
I think this
Means I’m
Free

I love this side of the break up, the realization that you really didn't need them to begin with!! Great work here Poppy!!
🎶Freedom, freeeeeeeedom! 🎶 Nicely done.
As Silver Serpent Books put it: this poem is super clean! The story works really well with this style of poem, as it feels like a gradual realization that this person is free, with 'free' being the final word and line! Really well done, Poppy. I think this has the potential to place in the challenge!!
This is so clean. Wow! I'm blown away by how seamless this is. It feels like the speaker just tumbled effortlessly through to the realization that they're free.
Oohh **strong exhale** I knew you would have excellent entries for this and you are not disappointing 👌🙏🏻❤️
Tragic to triumphant! Well done, Poppy!
Very good! Seems like this form is inspiring you
That ending was so powerful! Loved your Nonet!
Incredible and love how well this flowed. Well done, Ms Thepoet!
