    This is such a sad piece. The thoughts you have shared in your words are so heartfelt. The sadness of missing the one you love.

    I love you"
    Simple words
    Eight letters
    that wield such power.
    And in darkness,
    lit only from the moonlit sky
    that accompanies the stars
    I watch as ink mixes
    with my tears.

    The ending brings tears.
    Excellent job!
    your friend Cindy

    Three very simple words which have profound effect on our lives, your write shows emotions in the words and this does the work of carrying the message accross very beautifully.

    Warmest regards,

    Very nicely done! This reflects the inadequacies of the written word to capture those 8 letters in a verse......for try as we may...somehow it seems we always fall short....yet the poet will forever strive to succeed!

    "I love you"
    Simple words
    Eight letters

    Now that is true...
    This poem struck a huge chord with me, the simplicity of the free verse contrastes perfectly with the urgency of the tone
    Of course that could just be the way i read it..
    5/5 as always m'dear
