"So simple a concept yet so complex in its effects..." Spot-on. Some ways we grow to miss people and honor their memories are very specific to them, but some things are universal -- like that feeling of your house losing the status of "home," without that special person to occupy it with you -- and it's the latter you build upon in this piece. I find this all so relatable, when it comes to loss.

Thank you! I tried playing around with different zooms on this bucket of raspberries but I loved all of the shades so I picked the photo with the farthest zoom.

Whatever it is that's ailing your soul, you're obviously stronger than you know! Keep fighting on, keep writing about it!

Thank you! (You got an exclamation point.)
I really like the green shaded one!
The colors of the popsicle are so good, and the color of your nails is honestly so perfect with them to!
I also wrote a six-poem collection to go with this poem, should I add it to YWP as well?

Thank you! I took outside of my house.
