    Nik, words with a powerful message to someone who you loved and then there is a breakup. Nice to see you are moving on and can say these things to him. Well done.

    This is the attitude that I like to see. In the end, to know that you wanting someone doesn't mean NEEDING them is a true sign of cleverness and wisdom.
    As long as you have yourself, then you're fine. I absolutely loved this write because it goes line in line with my own way of thinking.
    You wrote so eloquently, and with every verse I saw a stronger you.
    A 5 for me Nik. And an easy one at that. Walah.

    'One move to the left and we're on the highest high'
    ^I'm not sure if it sounded awkward to anyone else but highest high sounded slightly odd.

    ' won't sugarcoat this, I won't you to know what I mean.'
    ^Second won't should be want

    I really loved this poem for the fact the emotion in it was easy to be felt. Theres many emotions running through your words, you can see that lingering hurt but more than anything the optimism shines through and speaks your message that you have moved on and don't want this person back in your life. Sometimes moving on is exactly what we need to be rewarded with the peace in our heart. I'm glad to read a poem like this, it was a wonderful write.

    It is hard to let go of someone we love. You did great with this piece.

    My wounds are now small openings in my past
    But the stronger I become, the less I want you back.
    The words you whispered to me have melted away
    Along with the "Together Forevers" that never stayed.
    What doesn't make sense most likely hurts the most.
    I'm done with being your hang over drug addicted overdose.

    I love this stanza, How you decide you are done with the games and the words that meant nothing.
    Great job!
    ~hugs~
