Bradley, that's a wonderful poem. As I began reading it, I thought it was actually about a military event, but as you beautifully moved the reader along, it became evident that it was about another kind of war, a war of the hearts. Thank you for a wonderful reading experience.
Okay, wow. I was needing to complete part three of the Bradbury challenge (write a short story, read a short story, and read a poem in one week) and dang if I didn't pick the right one. This makes me miss my poetry days. Nicely written! I don't know exactly the back story, but it's easy to assume.
Holy crap Bradley this one made me cry my eyes out 😭💔😭 especially once I listened to the musical pairing...no one's ever managed to break my heart with a poem before!! Damn your good!! What an exquisite peice!! Its heartbreakingly beautiful!!
I do apologize for the emotional distress, but I'm really happy to hear that it resonated with you so much, Tara. Your feedback and support are much appreciated as always.
I wholeheartedly agree. I'm doing exactly that, and thanks to this amazing community here, yourself included, I've finally found a place for me and my writing to call home.
That is so beautiful Bradley. There is something about acceptance that is both heartbreaking and freeing at the same time. You capture that in an exquisite way with this piece. Thank you for sharing 🙂
Stand strong, brother. We are all behind you, and will be here for whatever you need. Godspeed.
Great poem. Whatever you're fighting, I'm pretty sure you've already won.

Thank you, James! I like the sound of that challenge. And yes, I figured this was a topic that a lot of people could relate to for sure.

I don’t have the back story here, but this hit a nerve. I’m being very literal here, but I want to say I wish you strength tomorrow.
Thank you, Patty. It's a long back story, but I'm hoping to put it all behind me tomorrow. I appreciate your support.
The best revenge is living a good life, or whatever they say
