Wow, that was really good. A little different than what you normally write, but still exceptional.

"As I wondered if I'd be better of alone". I think you meant to say "off"

This poem delivers a very strong message. I loved it.

I like the flow and everything is just excellently written in this poem.

And the latest stanza is my favorite. Brilliant poem. It should be 5/5!!!

Good take on the contest title. The rhyming is good and the message strong...one I'm sure many can relate to....sounds like someone I know....lol....

"Well guess what darling, you were wrong
And now I'm finding it easier to breathe"

^ A good "now take that!" line....love it!

The poem has a nice rhythm and flow and makes it's point strongly! Nicely written! Take care, Debbie
