Reading this, I was struck by
Posted on Sat, 10 Jan 2015
Reading this, I was struck by what it would have meant to write, and especially, to receive letters like these. A brilliant way to piece together a story and a natural way to supply detail. Really well done!
This is a fascinating story of love and possession, and really well written. For me, there's a compulsion to see what he doesn't want to come true, and if he gets what he would, or should want, he'll lose all. I'm probably jibbering talkish, so I...
This first stanza is amazingly deep and - the 'no more than you are in the sketch you would have drawn of them.' is so strong I can't stop thinking about it. To not be in something you never got to do is the most less there of possibility - too...
Such a matter of fact run through of a life -(so far), without an apparent opinion, leaving the reader to decide how to feel about the events, joyful, sorrowful. Such a mixture, even though one event overpowers the rest. I felt a positive...

Letting go is the hardest thing, especially when you were never supposed to. There's so much love in this, Tina. It's heartbreaking. It's something about looking back at the memories - and no one knows back then, what's ahead. As usual, no...
Something rings so horribly true in the nature of this. It reminded me of loads of stuff it would fit in with. Surreal, horribly fascinating and compelling.
Most of all, I really felt the loneliness in this. No one to confide in, and having been 'groomed' using apparent common interests, the feeling of the greatest betrayal and desertion. There's so much more to the story than is written. Very clever...

Really sad. There's a feeling

Really sad. There's a feeling of regret, too , I think. At least someone cared - then wrote this lovely, atmospheric poem.
