This was well written, and while I actually love poetry, I often feel as though I hate it, since I'm so damned picky about it. I even write it myself and have for years, but a lot of my own writing I didn't think was "up to par", haha. Ah, the self criticism of the writer.
So, for me, it is meaningful to say I really liked this. It didn't feel pushed, or cheesy, or as though it possessed any pretention. :) It flowed and felt authentic. Thank you.
Thanks a lot! Would love to check out your work too
