Oh my gosh! My heart…. This is so incredibly, incredibly heartbreaking and beautiful. If this was written from experience, I’m so sorry for what you went through, and I’m so glad you wrote this. You are heard! <3
This is SO GOOD!!! It’s so relatable and touching. I absolutely love everything about this, and it really made me feel like someone understood. Thank you so much for writing this!! Please keep writing!!!
Thank you so much! To be honest, I felt like someone was telling me the story as I was writing it and that I didn't know what was happening until it did.
I love that you've kept certain characters you've created and reimagined them as adults. It must be so cool to watch them grow up, once you complete a piece like this and take a step back and compare them to older works!
This poem really tells a complete story, while leaving so much up to the imagination at the same time. I like that -- when readers get to fill in a few of those details themselves. It was exciting to read of each new photograph, see what you had in store, how this girl's life story was going to play out. I especially loved your specific descriptions of people and places, like the lady at the camera shop, and details like the "tiny, rich-people sips." Made me laugh!
