    I read this a week ago and when I wanted to comment on it now, it was really hard to search for it, haha. You write so much everyday!
    Anyway, I loved the scene of a girl stretching her hands for the moon and then when the morning is up, she wishes it calls for her. Sounds like something I'd done, haha. I love the fact that this is raw. I guess it needs some corrections but in all, this was really lovely. And no need to feel unsure about it. :)

    'There were barely
    any markings left on the tips of a tongue
    well adversed
    about missing blue skies, daisy porches'

    I think this is the best picture I have read in avery, very long while. Like in a month or so. Totally imaginative, creative and so you. I love the simplicity of it and the depth it still holds. Melancholic.
    Whatsoever, I guess the first line about departure taking away the dreams isn't really necessary. I feel it's just repeated again in the 'missing blue skies and daisy porches' image and you need the stronger version of the thought. And the one I pointed out is definitely the strongest here. So, I would drop it.

    'like the rim
    of berries I've sought out to pick,
    but just couldn't enclose
    my heart around.'

    Have I ever told you that you're the best at such imagery? It's gorgeous. You kinda changed your tone here; you were talking f missed dreams and you just quickly switched to berries and lips, even though you're still describing the same thing and I find that clever.
    'Yet I still feel the stain around' I would of said 'its stains'? I guess it's connected more to the moon in that way. etter than just a whole different image.

    'Because I don't think you can dance
    on sunshine, once you've been told
    it's already forgotten you...'

    I feel this is deeper than what I'm getting. I feel it has you somewhere. And I loved that. The rest just sounded to me ...unpoetic. Like they were too raw for my liking and too repeated, so I guess you might need to edit them a little bit more.

    Loved this write, MarryAnne. I love all your writes anyway.
    : )
    Nice to read you again!
