Jade! You're first two poems look fantastic! I especially like the first one because you really dig down and pull out the emotions. The second one, as well, is really good. I liked this bit for sure: "Smiles are nostalgic, / We've forgot how to laugh, / We're unanimous in / A fear of tomorrow"

Your poems are beautiful! <3 Can't wait for more!

I wholeheartedly agree with Blue.

Sometimes good poems have a little cliche spin on them, but this one is interesting and I appreciate the sentiments, as I've definitely felt this kind of feeling multiple times over the years.

Omg, lol, Jade I love your latest poem. xD I can pretty much see you're face, all flustered, staring at the mess, horrified.

The chemical smell that never truly leaves,
Accompanied by the snappy, cool latex gloves
And the floor, decorated in badly stained towels.

I love the way you use your adjectives!

There's one more day left for NaPo, yeah, but I hope you post more!

There's definitely some good imagery and colors mentioned in that last poem! And I like the tongue-in-cheek comment at the end of not wanting to go to the salon lol xD.

I don't know what I thought this poem would be about, but I wasn't expecting hair dye! It really made me laugh.

Using lines from a diary is such a cool idea!
