Comment from Mary Kay Bonfante
Congratulations on winning this contest! I can see why this poem is a winner. It's so lovely, even in all its sadness. Your rhymes work very well, the story told brings out sympathy and understanding. "It was his loss! He let HER get away and he will regret it, someday."
I found an error:
"Now everyone will think I go
to MIT and think I'm smart"
-->
"Now everyone will think I go
to MIT and think I'm smart,"
I feel the sadness in these verses, so creatively written. I hope she finds new love -- especially if it's you!

Yeah that kind of heartbreak sucks. He was a coward also.
I do think that this kind of pain doesn't easily heal.
Your poem was truthful and authentic.

Great Poem about lost love. I like the way you started the poem remembering the things he said and ended it in the same way. Many times it's the things that are said, that destroy love. Not that there should be any secrets between two people who love each other, but when a harmful secret comes to light, it's how the problem is talked out and dealt with that makes the difference whether or not that love will survive.

Comment from Gypsymooncat
I can see why this won! It's so excellent and fabulous and so darn sad. Maybe his new love will only hold his heart for a short while. Maybe he'll come back to you. But then, the sheets will get all mucked up again!
Loved it! Glad it won xoxo

Congratulations on your win. I would give you six stars but I'm fresh out. This poem hits home for me as my wife was the one caught cheating behind my back. And like the person you describe she left me alone and walked out without a hug or a kiss goodbye after seventeen years of marriage just when our dreams, and our future seemed so bright. The rhyming flows nicely and artwork is simply perfect.
Smiles :-)

Comment from Teri7
This is a very well written poem about love gone really bad. A very sad and bad affair. You used very good descriptive words and very good imagery from your words and the art work you chose. Blessings, teri

Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written poem about a love affair that's gone wrong. When one partner seems to lose interest in upholding the relationship it always goes down very fast until their is nothing left. Congratulations for winning the contest.

Comment from Earl Corp
Wow, put this to a tune and you have yourself a country song. This poem seems a little biographical, if it is kudos for being able to tap into that creatively. I wish you luck in the contest, though I don't think you'll need it.

Comment from Joan E.
You vividly took on the persona of someone disappointed in love. Your "endless nights" and "tomb" metaphor are very evocative, and your use of circularity and rhymes is quite effective. Best wishes in the contest- Joan
