Comments : Circle of Emotions

    Your rage fuelled my fire...
    Those words are awesome.
    I would have guess that there was no breaking point since there is a circle of emotions. But I guess, everything has a breaking point even the circle. Would that be the center or part of the circumference? Not sure. I might not be undersanding the concept unless I focus on the fire consuming the circle and turning it into dust or something lol. I'll come back with a better comment.

    Liz- You have this powerful way of expressing your emotions... everyone has breaking points... and the sadness and word usage within this piece is explosive.... well done Liz ~

    Oh Oh! I loved this! I loved that it started out by you admitting this person broke you, which could give them satifaction, but then at the end you say you've noticed someone must have broke them too since they are raging and changing, which could piss them off and be sort of an "in your face" line. Which I love!

    This was very honest and powerful :) Excellent work

    I relentlessly
    desire your
    old persona -
    the one who
    caressed my back
    while I slept.

    and -

    who kissed
    my eyelids
    goodnight.

    This poem is amazing, I love how you worded it and laid it out the way you did. it seems we all have a breaking point, some more than others. . . it definitely can cause an circle of emotions. . . you expressed well. nice poem :)

    Circlers of emotions

    I'll start by saying that the title caught my attention and that it deviated me from focusing on the complete poem, but that's my fault for not seeing the bigger picture and for focusing on the word Circle way too much.

    I guess you
    have found
    my breaking point.

    --/ this stanza is alarming in some way because I am going to assume that the breaking point is referring towards a weakness or rather when she will explode,
    And so now that that someone knows it, the author might feel vulenerable.

    I knew that it
    was buried
    deep down...

    somewhere.

    --- with this stanza, I get the feeling like the author didn't even have the slightest clue of were her weakness or breaking point was located at.

    I just didn't foresee
    that it would be
    you who
    discovered it -

    --- but this other person found it, and it could be obvious that the one to find it first is the author instead of that someone, so it must have been a shocker for the author to find out that someone else already found her breaking point.

    or your ego
    that would
    cause the
    eruption.

    --- I'm thinking that her breaking point is incline towards the ego of that someone. And so now I'm not thinking that the author is using breaking point as to
    Imply that is her weakness rather the point in which she explodes or loses her control.

    I relentlessly
    desire your
    old persona - 
    the one who 
    caressed my back
    while I slept.

    and -

    who kissed
    my eyelids
    goodnight.

    --- I guess the authors breaking point is when that someone isn't him anymore. When his ego thrives and she loses control of her senses.

    Admittedly,
    I began to
    see the changes
    in you.

    Your rage fuelled
    my fire.

    --- I love this sentence, I could think that perhaps you were angry and his tempered only fed your anger more and more.

    I guess someone
    must have
    found your breaking
    point too. 

    --- and so if he/she is angry too then perhaps someone else made him/her explode too and thats why he was a total different person and not the old persona.

    And circle of emotions... I see it like when someone smiles the other one does too. If someone is angry chances are the other one my get angry too depending on how the angry person behaves with the other one. And so it's a circle, a never ending circle of emotions that can project to someone a mood and that someone to some other and so on.

    Awesome poem!!!

    You always.. always.. use the 'simplicity' in presenting your cards to the readers. Gosh, Liz, I'm tired of saying you are fantastic!

    Such a way with the opening, that it sucked me in promptly.

    'Breaking Point' - your site of weakness, well-said!

    you who
    discovered it -

    ^ I think it should be: you who would discover it -

    --- No doubt, the 'Your rage fueled my fire' is the best verse IMO. I think it is so catchy and enticing to the eyes and ears.

    The end wowed me...
    beautiful, Liz

    Liz,
    Again it is the simplicity in your words that brings out the best in you, contrasting with those emotions...
    I sensed anger in your words and strength too.

    This piece really was awesome.

    love
    xx

    I loved the whole concept of the poem with the whole finding each others breaking point.

    I found this poem to be deep and it really pulled at my heart strings. Many people experiance relationships where we thought the one person who wouldn't hurt them actually does and it turns out they don't just hurt us a little they hurt us deeply, so deeply infact it bring us to our breaking point.

    You picked an excellent topic to write about and you did the subject justice. I just hope this poem is a work of fiction and not something you have had to experiance.

    5/5

    That is some piece of writing I can't tell you how much that moved me, such a beautiful piece. Big sigh!! I genuinely think there's nothing worse than heartache it is so encompassing it takes all of our senses away and can leave us numb, I don't think I've ever written so much in a comment before.....for me....it was just exquisite 5/5 all day long xx
