1SP commented on: "I am" by Miss.Jenna 14 weeks 6 days ago
There’s something beautifully: There’s something beautifully honest about this poem—the way it holds youth, uncertainty, and hope in the same open palm. The repetition of “I am young and unknowing” doesn’t read like weakness; it feels like a declaration of becoming, a reminder that growth starts with admitting what we don’t yet understand. The speaker’s fears, dreams, and contradictions all feel real and human, and the desire for love and a future gives the poem its heartbeat. This is the kind of piece that shows how courage often looks: not loud, but willing to step forward anyway.

1SP commented on: Letting go by Miss.Jenna 14 weeks 6 days ago
This piece carries the quiet: This piece carries the quiet ache of someone trying to do the right thing even when it breaks them. You can feel the tug‑of‑war between love and letting go, between wanting peace and still caring what happens to him. The lack of closure sits heavy, but the final lines show a soul choosing forward motion anyway. It’s tender, lonely, and brave all at once—proof that healing often begins in the dim rooms where we finally admit the truth to ourselves.

1SP commented on: Distant love by Miss.Jenna 14 weeks 6 days ago
This piece feels like a: This piece feels like a heartbeat stretched across miles—soft, sincere, and steady. The way you describe falling “straight off your feet into nothingness” captures that dizzy, helpless beginning of love so perfectly. And the dream‑like longing woven through each stanza makes the distance feel both painful and sacred at the same time.   I love how you shift from fantasy to intention—“I want you in my life, not just as a fantasy”—that’s the kind of line that stays with you. The devotion in the everyday details, the listening, the face you miss, the hope you hold… it all builds into a promise that feels real.   And that ending? “Don’t be surprised in 80 years”—that’s the kind of forever that makes a reader smile. It’s tender, patient, and full of faith.   Beautifully written. Distance may stretch the space between two bodies, but this poem proves it can’t touch the bond between two hearts.

I like how you frame the: I like how you frame the State of the Union as a crossroads — ‘make or break time’ — and let the acrostic carry that momentum. The tone stays sharp and focused throughout.

The repetition of aiming high: The repetition of aiming high but landing two feet away says everything. It’s a powerful portrait of someone fighting gravity they don’t want to admit is there.

The imagery is powerful —: The imagery is powerful — dust over the eyes, kicked under the dresser, the sudden shift from being wanted to being overlooked. You captured that kind of loss with real clarity.
