Hi Katie, I'm new to this site and poetry really isn't my forte, but I think this poem will really speak to a lot of people going through the same thing, and it's really honest. I know you're maybe hoping for some constructive criticism but I don't really have any, I just think sometimes it's encouraging to just know that your work is having an effect on people...doncha think?
