    The anguish is palpable as she awaits words from her love and then the ending. I never wish anyone dead, but am glad there was a reason for the love letters not to arrive. Excellent!

    If I use the adjective amazing for this poem then too I am degrading the richness of this poem. Because this poem is right up there in the list of the best poems by you and best poems read by me. Dont you trust me?

    This poem is probably the best sad love poem that I have ever read these years. I can feel the pain. Ouch! It seriously pricks while reading this poem. Perfect and rich content. Simple but haunting word selection. The only scope of improvement that you require is to write your poems better than this one. Because with every new poem, you are raising your bar as a poet. I am definately waiting for your next poem.

    One last time: Wonderfully crafted masterpiece, ma'am! One needs to fit into the shoes to know how much they prick. You have successfully shown the pain by etching out this poem. Kudos! Definately a 5/5.

    Regards,

    Ingrid,

    this sonnett is to mind and eye absolutely perfect, from syllable count, to the flawless rhyme scheme and finally the jaw dropping couplet.

    The story of a lady, a lonely, yet hopeful lady. Although she doesn't have much contact with the man that she loves, she fondly remembers each contour of his chiseled face, the way his voice effected her, even the way his cologne lingered long after he had left. His parting words, ' I will write, I promise, goodbye my love..goodbye' Her eyes glaze over as she sees the memory of his dark blue eyes walking away from her..finally he disapeared, leaving sweet memories and his cologne.

    Well done Ingrid

    I love this Sonnett, I really do!
    ((hugs))
