Hi ACM,
First of all, I loved the title of your poem. I thought it really captured what love is in a nutshell. I also have to mention that it was your title that made me want to check out what you had to say.
The emotion behind this poem is beautiful. It really captures what falling in love, heartbreak, and playing with someone's heart is like.
I loved the line "so gamble your heart away."
It shows how much someone loves somebody else so much it seems they are willing to have heartbreak.
I really like the pacing you put in the story. I also liked the style you wrote in which is free verse. That was a risk, as most writers will write love poems to rhyme in each line. I liked your risk, because I thought it stood out.
I really enjoyed this poem and I hope you continue to do great work!
