    Acidic memories,
    drenched me again
    last night,

    *I can really relate to that. I feel that way whenever the memory of someone comes back and I don't know how to handle it. I think you did a wonderful job with the image. Your words are soft and hold so much sadness and pain in them. I love the way this was written. It was simple but the emotions described can be different for anyone. I loved this piece hun, very well done. Nik*

    Why still stands,
    solitary lighthouse

    ^It feels like there is a word missing in here somewhere

    Aside from this, I thought it was wonderful. Without even looking at the photo that inspired this, I think you did a great job and created a great image in the reader's head. I really enjoyed reading this, nice work.

    ^Why still stands,
    solitary lighthouse^

    This couplet is missing a word.....you need an a or a the before solitary and the first line is worded unnaturally. You could have worded it:

    WHy a solitary lighthouse still stands

    Still standing is a solitary lighthouse

    something worded a little different that sounds more natural.

    I know English isn't your first language so you get extra kudos.

    I like the word choice, imagery and emotion.
